Vigil,

I am looking forward (anticipatory voyeurism?) to when you execute your "shock and awe" operation.

I hope to be able to hold the camera steady. Come to think of it, it WILL be difficult to do so while holding the camera with only one hand. Hmm… perhaps I’ll need to use new technologies.

I’m uncertain, but I think the US Military is exploring something new here. The devastation is SO great, and the collateral damage is SO low, that I get the feeling that they are trying to find out if, indeed, the realization of force can be used to pry the leaders/tyrants/oppressors away from their power base – the people. I know that this sounds confused, but I’m still trying to understand what is going on underneath the razzle-dazzle.

Any thoughts?
