                    [Summary] => The Iraqis are a beautiful people. They deserve to be free.


That is, lest we forget, the final moral underpinning for the war of liberation that commenced last week.

Without that perspective, the blitz currently in progress will become a senseless blur of made-for-TV images. Without it, the intense media coverage of the war will become nothing more than a glorified body count or a seminar on the geography of Iraq.

It will become merely a festival of modern weaponry, a carnival of heroes and villains, an orgy of violence.
