Terror vs. terror

I've just heard the best summarisation of the so-called war on terror. In a programme about the use of Agent Orange a US Vietnam veteran who has been going back to Vietnam for the past ten years tells how after September 11th 2001 many Vietnamese approached him, hands on their hearts. He says they were expressing their sorrow for "what happened to 3000 of us. We have never said sorry to what we did to 3 million of them".
