Doc:
Your platitudes and generalities on the allegedly grand topic of man's imperfection, war's brutality, and man's inhumanity to man are trite and empty. They add no value to the topic.
The subject is the here and now, the reality, the gritty fact of what is. The title is a reminder of the following: while a lot of us amuse ourselves by playing War Games, however fun they are, the reality upon which those War Games are modeled is nothing to be taken lightly, nor to be undertaken by morons.
If I could be granted one wish, it would be that a Marine Sniper with a .50 cal sniper rifle would be given the mission of removing a vile warmonger. He is named Wolfowitz and is currently serving as head of World Bank. Chickenhawk for dinner, anyone?
But it won't happen.
Why?
Fantasy, like WoW, is not reality, so we endeavor to persevere.
Of course, that SOB better not show up in a bar where I am drinking, unless he likes eating empty Becks' bottles. :angry:

I don't care whodunnit... I just care that somebody done it. It bothers me. I don't like it one bit. I was trying to communicate my displeasure over the events. Nothing more, and, in my mind, had a lot to do with your post.
