I have seen destruction and death ---live. (now that sounds strange). I get disturbed seeing the victims of 911, I get moved when I see the victims of suicide bombers in Bali, in Israel etc. I get disturbed when I see the "ethnic cleansing" in Bosnia. I do not get disturbed when I see dead enemies of the United States. I do not like the idea, but I am afraid that there will be more of them. Of course there should be more complete press coverage of the war, for both sides to see.
