Listening to war coverage today, I notice that American sources for the most part are reporting and speculating on the same three or four things, over and over and over.
Meanwhile, the BBC radio coverage is interviewing scholars about the linguistic significance of Saddam calling Bush a "donkey" and of US press officers calling the first strike an attempt at "decapitation." And by way of illustration, of course, discussing the common insults and epithets attached to leaders by opposing troops during WW2. "So, when President Hussein calls President Bush a 'donkey,' we should regard that not just as a bit of crudity, but as a *calculated* insult. Is that right?"
