Abstract
It is pretty standard fare to argue that in fighting a successful war on terror, we shall have to compromise some of our values. And while this is not altogether correct, it is certainly more insightful and candid than the claims that really nothing needs to change which the very events of 9/11 and its aftermath decisively refute. Nevertheless, this standard claim is wrong, but because it is wrong in a subtle, habitual way, it takes some analysis to get right.
