...American soldier was an appropriate selection, yet there was no mention of the coalition soldiers from other nations whose lives have been sacrificed in Iraq. I do not want to sound churlish, but without the help of the forces from numerous other countries, the task of overthrowing Saddam Hussein would have been considerably tougher.

...Snaring Saddam Why am I not terribly impressed or terribly relieved by the capture of Saddam Hussein [Dec. 22]? It took an awfully long time to capture him, and in the sorry state he was found in?disoriented, bearded, tired?he seemed hardly a threat to anyone. But what's worse, the Americans got the wrong man.

...United States seems a lot more insecure these days. The vengeance of the swaggering global cowboy that has crushed its enemies continues to shock and awe, yet even after the capture of our national bogeyman Saddam Hussein, America remains skittish. Sending back planes from its shores and sniffing for dirty bombs with reckless abandon, the Bush administration and its parrots in the media demand increased vigilance, wariness and, above all, paralyzing fear...
