Sorry if I misunderstood Susan - sensitive point.
I sat with people here in the mid-West of Ireland in tears at the time of the Omagh bombing - inhuman, unnecessary, and totally beyond our control.
The most insultingly distressing of acts of inhumanity are those that are done 'on our behalf' by the people we elect and whose wages we pay.
