"Refuse to Give in to Fear"

"Take, for example, Jeb Bush's declaration that 'this is an organized attempt to destroy Western civilization.' No, it isn't. It's an organized attempt to sow panic, which isn't at all the same thing. And remarks like that, which blur that distinction and make terrorists seem more powerful than they are, just help the jihadists' cause."

Paul Krugman in The New York Times warns that "the biggest danger terrorism poses to our society comes not from the direct harm inflicted, but from the wrong-headed responses it can inspire."
