Re: "magnitude of horror"? (quoting from the story)
My good WOL, the issue here is NOT Saddam's goons or beheadings or anythng like that.

It is about how our government rewards and has rewarded those who serve their country.

They put their live on the line every day.

From WWI thru the 50's and the cover up of radiation disease of GI's through denials of responsibility for certain problems our military personnel have had, it seems the government and the Dept. of Defense have a policy of use 'em and forget 'em when it comes to those who server their country.

"magnitude of horror"? (quoting from the story)
Wrong and in need of immediate correction? Absolutley. Horror? No. That is what the troops are fighting, from Saddam's goons ripping out tongues that spoke against the dictator and torturing children to punush their parents to the beheadings conducted by the terrorists today. That, my good Xenox, is horror.
