On Monday, the military forces of Haiti, after Lengthy discussion with US Peace Negotiators and the eminent threat of air strikes by Navy and Air Force planes, agreed to step down and allow the "democratic" government of Jean-Paul Aristide to return to power. When word of the announcement finally reached the ears of the American masses, a sigh of disappointment rose up. Arm chair generals all across the nation put down their Buds, pulle.d themselves out of their La-Z-Boys, and curse.ct while spitting tobacco into the cup in their can. The news me.dia shuffle.ct disappointedly back to their planes, putting away their gas masks and shelving dreams of becoming the next "scud stud." The big three (and Fox), looke.d down from on high, saddene.d at the loss of the ratings boost from free live violence and mayhem. The American people have been obsesse.d with the idea of "media coverage" ever since it first began during the Vietnam war, when the strict media blackout was lifted under the guise of ''freedom of the press." Reporters swarmed into the areas, desperate for hard hitting stories about the lives and losses of the Vietnam soldiers. As public opinion shifted over the past20 years, however, they have become less interested in the people in the war and more interested in how they die. The masses' obsession with blood and gore only increases when they realize that the horrors on their cold TV screen are all too real. One only needs to see the slow creep of traffic passing by a potentially grotesque accident J------ to realize the situation shows no real signs of abating. · The U.S. government is also by far free from blame. One has only to look at the public opinion polls during "Operation Desert There's more to owning a dog then moSt think Storm" to see what a fantastic effect war can have on a people.
