I was struck by nightline about the Red Badge of Courage Syndrome.

Junior threw his caution and common sense out the window after he ran away on 9/11. To redeem his manhood he had to emulate the most radical man he could find, Wolfowitz. This is just like the Steven Crane story where the guy ran away from battle and returned to lead an unnecessary charge to cover his shame of cowardace. Junior, of course, leads by ordering others to die, not by actually leading.
