"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war." (Ann Coulter, National Review On-Line) Somehow, and it may be because I like Ann Coulter so much, I take this as a cry of grief rather than as a call to viciousness.
