17. If he is human, he will suffer. If he is not, no wishing will
change his mental state.

I wish, instead, that he will serve as a lesson both to himself and to others, and that somehow, someway, something good will come from all this evil.

I think we have seen the difference between this young man, who got caught in the horror of war, improperly trained, terrified 24/7 out of his wits, who commited a horrible act and followed it with a lie but who ultimately KNOWS he did something wrong -- a sociopath like booosh and/or cheney. How we measure his remorse, how we measure the wrongness of his wrong is immaterial; he feel something, and something is more than the nothing (or, worse, the glee) our sociopathic leaders experience when observing the carnage they have wrought.

Some of us here, back in late 2002 and early 2003, knew this would happen to some extent or other, because of the nature of the war booosh had got us into. As I read the accounts -- and I confess I am able to read only a few of them -- only one name comes to mind.

I wonder whatever happened to FalconAir?
