Tam the Bam is 100% right. The ultimate cause [note--I didn't say "fault"]lies in the fact of the assault upon Iraq, and the subsequent occupation. TB. pranced around Africa trying to polish up the self-constructed mirage of Tony-theWorld-statesman but finding time to spout pious platitudes about his sympathies with the Bigley family, and of how Iraq had to be dealt with as it is a hotbed of terrorists. Damn' right it is---even if it wasn't before Tony and Shrub threw the young-uns in to slaughter and be slaughtered. Ken Bigley's murder was a horrible event, and sadness, disgust and media comment is understandable. Why was there so much less concern however,when, during the same twenty-four hours, a wedding party--men, women and children--had their lives snuffed out by "precision" bombing "aimed at terrorists"?
