Now how many of US (Americans or not) fit into that short attention span category, well that's subject to debate....

Depends who's talking

As for the reporting of the death of Sadman's sons it has been a little over the top. I think is for a couple of reasons though

1. The people of Iraq have been tortured by these people for many years and they're now being told they can live without the fear of it being done to them again by these sick men.

2. The "war" has never really been over since the US declared that it was and everyday there are more reports of soldiers being killed in bomb attacks and sniper shootings. The death of these two VERY high ranking members of the oposing forces is a huge step in the right direct for coming to a final end to the war.

3. There's so much attention being placed on the lack of evidence of WMDs that the governments need something big to deflect interest away from that and so far this is the biggest piece of news they've had to do that.

A few people in Iraq and in the UK that have been tortured at the hands of sadman's sons have said they wish that they'd been captured rather than killed so that they could face a proper court to pay for their crimes.........although some of the people wanted them to be tortured in the same way they had.

....WAR.....what is it good for ?.........

well it's good for some of the people some of the time....... but most of the time it's no good to anyone.
