these past few hours have been the longest, darkest of my life. this is when you wish the buck did not stop here. a balance between two tragedies. on one hand the fate of a million civilians. on the other, frank hummel. that we have ignored or abandoned or marginalized a great soldier like frank hummel and that american boys have paid the price of that neglect in blood, is equally real, and equally tragic. i don't believe in half full or half empty, sinclair. there are chemical weapons and there are civilians. and there are men on alcatraz wholve proved they're willing to use the one on the other. we are at war with terror. fighting a war means casualties. this is the worst call i've ever had to make. air strike approved.
