And what are you?  A journalist/editor?  Who are you to say what should have
been included where?  If you want the kind of gore you're asking for, just
check out CNN any half hour.  Or have a look at some of the pictures that
are being sent back by photo/reporter crews that various newspapers are
sending over to get the truth out (e.g. the Toronto SUN).

A vacuous argument strengthens nothing ... except perhaps the obvious
implication that you fall in the same camp as the idiot fanatics that
still continue to try to convince people that the Holocaust never happened,
that it was fiction and fabrication by the Jews:  Those pictures of heaps
of bones used to make manure for Auschwitz's commandant's cabbage patch --
hey!  they're all fabrication!  Those mass-grave photos found by the
liberating allies -- they used actors!  and so on it goes.

You're a sick person.  You might reflect, for a moment, on the value
of the tolerance this society has -- and at what cost -- to allow your
type of drivel to be disseminated.  Making bets about the true anguish
of the death and misery we watch each day from the comfort of our living
rooms can only be the product of a sick mind.
