Poignant story.

Mr. Yon's story (see link below) is a sad story about a woman who wanted to write a book about a search for true love.

Remember it next time you hear Palestinians or Muslim apologists talk about civilian casualties.

The war in Iraq is about killing animals. Thus, it is good and necessary.

But it is one thing to go to war to defend yourself against true enemies or to aid others under attack. It's another to go to war because you are unwilling to accept your own cultural inferiority and you decide you have to kill inoffensive people from vibrant cultures to hide your inferiority.
