Today's speech of br president Fernando Henrique Cardoso -
where he said Brazil was supporting the USA fight against
Taliban and Al-Qaeda - terminated by his enumeration of the
names of 7 brazilian victims of the WTC attack.

Probably giving names is stronger than just giving numbers.


I guess there's a quote, attributed to Stalin, something like
"One man dies, and it's a tragedy. One million men die, and
it's statistics".
