Well put, Tim.  Here's a suggestion for another thread:  What will we
tell groups of school kids and others who ask us why the Americans
stood by and did nothing to stop the looting and vandalism?  I don't
have the answer.  And I'm sure not going to say that "They were just
untidy", or that we wanted to "Just let them get it out of their
system".  Anybody over the age of one and a half could see through
that twaddle.
