<Chickenhawk n. A person enthusiastic about war, provided someone else fights it; particularly when that enthusiasm is undimmed by personal experience with war; most emphatically when that lack of experience came in spite of ample opportunity in that person’s youth.>

<From a near-death state fourteen years ago, the Gazette has revived to the point where we now have well over 10,000 readers. We’re growing like Topsy.

You might think, “So what? That’s tiny. What difference can something like that make?”
