Hi JohnM; Re: "Wars are made for television events these days..."

You got that right. But it's not new. Try these famous images from a previous war:

Execution in streets of Saigon:
photo.net

Naked girl runs from napalm:
mindfully.org

73-year old monk self immolates with gasoline:
wellesley.edu

I'm thinking it was Stalin who said that one death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic.
