It's amazing how the media outlets decided to show the graphic loss of life from the killer tsunami waves -- the bodies washed ashore, many bloated as they piled up in numbers that far outdistanced the ability of loved ones to identify and bury them. I'm truly amazed the media deemed it proper and appropriate, since televising dead service-members arriving home at Dover Air Force Base in the dead of night, in neat flag-draped coffins is still not allowed. Obviously, the same standards do not apply.

What about Iraqi civilian dead. I have yet to see any on the telly. Oh and they do that because it's News, and when they say "thousands dead" you better show us some proof.
