I posted that about a week ago (see "The Good Humour Man Cometh")!  You tryin' to horn in on my act, kid!?  !{)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Sorry. Didn't see it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>>What was so "pro-war" about it?  I thought it a fine anti-war message:  all the pricks being shown, the whole thing depicted >as a big party by the U.S. leaders, Bush being "second-fiddle" to the more experienced Powell, all that ridiculous firepower >to hit one flea-like opponent, and the climax: smashing a quarter of the planet to kill one guy.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Apart from the planet being quartered (which could mean "blow 'em off the map"), I thought that, while amusing, the piece showed bombs targeting bin Laden alone, which is clearly not the case. No dead civilians, shattered towns, Red Cross and food warehouse destruction; just antiseptic bombing fun, which ends with Ossama getting his, and the tag "You can run but you can't hide." </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV>Now, if the whole thing is an incredibly dry parody of what I just wrote, then allow me to wipe the egg off my face.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>DP</DIV> <DIV> </DIV></BODY></HTML>
