<P>Carl,</P>
<P>I think the Spokesman Review could have done without those pictures.&nbsp; Steven A. Smith's note about the decision-making process ends by saying, "But we sincerely believe publication serves the interests of the larger audience and the interests of history."</P>
<P>It seems to me that if the S-R is interested in serving a larger audience and history, they might consider doing some reporting on the unravelling of the rationales for this war. They could follow up on Rumsfeld's comment that it was impossible to capture the folks in that villa.&nbsp; I guess our ability to wait people out has deteriorated since we got Old What's His Name in Panama, back in the first Bush Administration.&nbsp; Must be Clinton's fault.</P>
<P>Perhaps they could write an article about whether our government has any interest in taking any of the Hussein family alive.&nbsp;By now it ought to be clear that we have no intention.&nbsp; Whenever we think we know where he is, everything and everyone in the vicinity gets blown up.&nbsp; Hey, in the interest of History, why not an article about why our government might prefer not to have Hussein alive and talking to reporters?</P>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;This morning's Spokesman carried the pictures of the bodies of 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Hussein's sons, with an explanation of why the decision was made on 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;the front page. I understand the Tribune did not. It did slow me 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;down a little bit while eating my orange chicken right now, but I 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;got over it. Should the pictures be published? Not?
