Presence: Terrorism

During my writing of Presence, there was the controversy in which TikTok users discovered Bin Laden's "Letter to America" criticising the nation's support of Israel. First off, the users ignored the blatant Antisemitism in the letter, referring to the "Jewish Media", (this is the failure of the Left's identity politics which flag up everything except obviously Antisemitic criticism of Israel). That got me thinking how terrorism, whether the Left likes it or not, is much closer to their values and aims then they would suppose. Hence, at the end, Chris Starkweather is able to appeal to Carrie Chaplin by telling her they basically share the same goal -- only he is chillingly more effective.
