By the way, GUEST,B--I wasn't suggesting anything like that. I was merely pointing to the irony of it apparently being safer in a war zone than it is on some city streets in the U. S. There seem to be a lot of people in this country who are not particularly bothered by violence and even regard it as high on the agenda as a method for solving whatever problems they might have. Too bad so many of them are in the government.
