High price for American arrogance

01:00 AM EDT on Tuesday, May 4, 2004

Bravo to Ted Koppel and ABC's Nightline for humanizing the situation in Iraq by devoting an entire broadcast to reading the names of 500 servicemen and -women who have died in Iraq. We dimiss the importance of those who serve by saying that such acts are "contrary to the public interest" or, worse yet, a stunt for television's May sweeps.

Isn't it time for America to transfer power to the United Nations? Our arrogance continues to paint bigger targets on American backs.
