What Objectivists Saw, Why America Failed, and the Radical Ideas the Future Demands
Friday, September 11•5:00 PM CDT
When jihadists struck on 9/11, ARI’s response differed radically from those of conservatives, libertarians, and politicians of every persuasion. We argued that America faced a global ideological movement, that it needed to be defeated, but that the fundamental obstacle to U.S. victory was not a lack of military capability; it was philosophic. Unless challenged, the prevailing irrational ideas about morality would subvert the world’s greatest military force.
Tragically, ARI’s analysis was proven correct.
Join us for two events analyzing what went wrong since 9/11, illuminating the power of Objectivism, and pointing the way out.
