Summary

This quote refers to the aftermath of the September 11th attacks and the response from the US government. It suggests that immediately following the event, before any proper assessment or investigation occurred, there was a sense of satisfaction or excitement within the administration. This perceived reaction implies that some individuals may have seen it as an opportunity to justify invading Iraq and subsequently advocated for military action, as evidenced by the mention of "war drums." The quote suggests a level of preconceived agenda rather than a truly objective response.

The drop is full of life - strange beings swimming, crawling, tumbling; high dramas of pursuit and escape, triumph and tragedy. This is a world populated by beings far more exotic than in any science fiction movie...
