Notes from a small island
A weblog by Jonathan Ali


Friday, July 04, 2003  

"George Dubya Bush and his administration seem hell bent upon destroying the America the world loves and the Caribbean belongs to....

"You get the feeling it will become the official American approach: to withdraw from the rest of us, even her fellow Americans, to declare anyone who opposes the official line a terrorist; and to clamp down further on freedoms in the name of liberty. Anyone who loves America will worry that this low-key Fourth of July portends an even more unsettling second anniversary of 9/11."

- BC Pires, employing the synecdoche and worrying that America will be the death of America, in his column in today's Guardian.
