这回如何玩法？

       瞧（乔）大爷又冒泡了，这回又是道理上讲得通，实际上行不通。美国特工队可以在巴基斯坦取拉登性命，伊拉克特工队眼下想在美国取小布什性命几无可能。“金兵有狼牙棒，宋人有天灵盖”——说到底就是胳膊扭不过大腿，结巴说不过快嘴，强弱异势耳。

       小白脸药家鑫怕农村人只伤不死找麻烦，捅死了拉倒；奥巴马也怕拉登活着找麻烦，故缴枪不缴枪通杀，以绝后患。人皆曰药家鑫该杀，却不知奥巴马罔顾“程序正义”，也是于法有差。美国律师们这回少了个发财的机会，却一齐做了哑巴；只有一个不晓事的语言学家胡乱嚷嚷（谬论见附文）——不是法律砖家、法学叫兽，哪里轮得着你乱点鸳鸯谱的乔老爷来说话？

       电影《追捕》故事结尾处，检察官杜丘开枪杀了罪犯，矢村警长抢过手枪又补了几枪，然后言道：“我打死他是正当防卫”，公然地为杜丘的违法行为作了遮盖。当时看得真过瘾，现在回头想想，难道自视行为正当，就可以玩法？想想当下，这情形每况愈下，回头再有人去上海吊车厂玩自动刹车也无须大惊小怪的了。

       胡话少说，且用一曲小令做收煞：[调寄如梦令]休说法相庄严，莫谈程序正义，民主爆菊花！这回如何玩法？玩法、玩法，谁个脸白嘴小？谁个脸黑嘴大？

Noam Chomsky: My Reaction to Osama bin Laden’s Death

May 6, 2011

It’s increasingly clear that the operation was a planned assassination, multiply violating elementary norms of international law. There appears to have been no attempt to apprehend the unarmed victim, as presumably could have been done by 80 commandos facing virtually no opposition—except, they claim, from his wife, who lunged towards them. In societies that profess some respect for law, suspects are apprehended and brought to fair trial. I stress “suspects.” In April 2002, the head of the FBI, Robert Mueller, informed the press that after the most intensive investigation in history, the FBI could say no more than that it “believed” that the plot was hatched in Afghanistan, though implemented in the UAE and Germany. What they only believed in April 2002, they obviously didn’t know 8 months earlier, when Washington dismissed tentative offers by the Taliban (how serious, we do not know, because they were instantly dismissed) to extradite bin Laden if they were presented with evidence—which, as we soon learned, Washington didn’t have. Thus Obama was simply lying when he said, in his White House statement, that “we quickly learned that the 9/11 attacks were carried out by al Qaeda.”

Nothing serious has been provided since. There is much talk of bin Laden’s “confession,” but that is rather like my confession that I won the Boston Marathon. He boasted of what he regarded as a great achievement.

There is also much media discussion of Washington’s anger that Pakistan didn’t turn over bin Laden, though surely elements of the military and security forces were aware of his presence in Abbottabad. Less is said about Pakistani anger that the U.S. invaded their territory to carry out a political assassination. Anti-American fervor is already very high in Pakistan, and these events are likely to exacerbate it. The decision to dump the body at sea is already, predictably, provoking both anger and skepticism in much of the Muslim world.

It's like naming our murder weapons after victims of our crimes: Apache, Tomahawk… It’s as if the Luftwaffe were to call its fighter planes “Jew” and “Gypsy.”

We might ask ourselves how we would be reacting if Iraqi commandos landed at George W. Bush’s compound, assassinated him, and dumped his body in the Atlantic. Uncontroversially, his crimes vastly exceed bin Laden’s, and he is not a “suspect” but uncontroversially the “decider” who gave the orders to commit the “supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole” (quoting the Nuremberg Tribunal) for which Nazi criminals were hanged: the hundreds of thousands of deaths, millions of refugees, destruction of much of the country, the bitter sectarian conflict that has now spread to the rest of the region.

There’s more to say about [Cuban airline bomber Orlando] Bosch, who just died peacefully in Florida, including reference to the “Bush doctrine” that societies that harbor terrorists are as guilty as the terrorists themselves and should be treated accordingly. No one seemed to notice that Bush was calling for invasion and destruction of the U.S. and murder of its criminal president.

Same with the name, Operation Geronimo. The imperial mentality is so profound, throughout western society, that no one can perceive that they are glorifying bin Laden by identifying him with courageous resistance against genocidal invaders. It’s like naming our murder weapons after victims of our crimes: Apache, Tomahawk… It’s as if the Luftwaffe were to call its fighter planes “Jew” and “Gypsy.”

There is much more to say, but even the most obvious and elementary facts should provide us with a good deal to think about.
