I dunno, I come from an era where at the moment we were destroying Afghanistan, or Iraq, the BBC would be publishing articles about the various missiles we were using, marvelling at their technological sophistication. In one article it was said that "we mustn't forget that, above all, this is a JDAM war." Which is strange, cos I felt that, above all, it was a criminal and savage war of aggression with a tremendous human cost. I guess we don't all have the same sort of humanitarian feelings. Or a lot of us can quite easily put them aside. Which is fair enough, it is stressful to think about that after all. In the middle of all that is going on in bad taste right now (eg. Condoleeza Rice doing an overnight 180 and deciding wars of aggression are bad), this seems to hardly even register.
