Don:

A vivid story and well told; the immediacy of Marcia's place in the picture is heart-stopping. This is the reality that those who think of war as a political token never feel or sense, it seems to me. This is the raw stuff that the euphemisms defend them from. This is "collateral damage" and all the other satanic semantics of glib political newspeak designed to cover up the ground truth of slaughter in the sand, the destruction of families and of hopes, perpetrated by people with big false pictures in their small brains, like Hussein and Bush -- a pair of psychos who deserve to live together in isolation for ten years..

Thanks,


A
