      It is the way conflict has to be reported and understood. Maybe there's hope for the Post yet. The only other comment I have to make is that I'm not sure Vietnam was worse, but they were a lot alike, and unlike Korea or WWII for the most part, because of their policing nature that, as he said, creates more stress for longer periods. I'm sure we are underestimating the effort required in wars like these, and therefore we have to be more sure of what we expect to achieve.
