9/11 Is Over? Now What?

Thomas L. Friedman has an interesting (NYT firewall-free) Op-Ed today, 9/11 Is Over. As Juan Cole notes:
The column is significant because it argues that Bushism-Cheneyism is bad for business... If Friedman's conviction becomes widespread in that community, the pressures to abandon the 'War on Terror' will be irresistible.
But this little quote from Friedman shows how much remains to be done:
I will not vote for any candidate who is not committed to dismantling Guantánamo Bay and replacing it with a free field hospital for poor Cubans.
Yep, even a progressive liberal NYT columnist is so brainwashed with US propaganda that he thinks Cubans need hospitals! I guess he hasn't seen Michael Moore's latest movie.
