What kind of people are these?

I absolutely love Joan Chittister. I haven't checked out the National Catholic Reporter Web site recently, so I went today to see the last few things she's written. This article,What kind of people are these?, was particularly well written and right on in my opinion.

I thought this was a great statement:
"Indeed, we have done exactly what the terrorists wanted us to do. We have proven that we are the oppressors, the exploiters, the demons they now fear we are. And -- read the international press -- few people are saying otherwise around the world.

From where I stand, it seems to me that we ourselves are no longer so sure just exactly what kind of people we have now apparently become."
