No, that is the problem here. We think of leaders, countries and armies, not networks and martyrs. Martyrs inspire martyrs. These guys feed off of recognition. They think of themselves as "heroes" -- and that is what they become when we put their pictures on CNN. Well they are not heroes to me. It is no good being a martyr if nobody knows your name. These guys want airtime on CNN -- fifteen minutes of fame and then on to the nymphs in heaven -- can't say I blame about the nymphs part. They want their picture in the paper. They are not important to me. I am not interested in their life history, their pictures or anything else about them. Arrest them and serve justice -- do not help them multiply their "glorious deeds". Get them off my screen and out of my television -- I would rather watch baseball. I would rather tell a good joke about them.
