Our Distance From The Old World, And The Favorable Circumstances In Which We Have Been Placed With Respect To The Other Nations Of The New World, Have Made It So Easy For Our Government To Adhere To A Pacific Policy, That, In The Sixty-Two Years That Have Elapsed Since The Acknowledgment Of Our National Independence, We Have Enjoyed More Than Fifty-Eight Of General Peace; Our Indian Border Wars Have Been Too Limited And Local In Their Character To Seriously Affect The Other Parts Of The Country, Or To Disturb The General Conditions Of Peace. This Fortunate State Of Things Has Done Much To Diffuse Knowledge, Promote Commerce, Agriculture, And Manufactures; In Fine, To Increase The Greatness Of The Nation And The Happiness Of The Individual. Under These Circumstances Our People Have Grown Up With Habits And Dispositions Essentially Pacific, And It Is To Be Hoped That These Feelings May Not Soon Be Changed. But In All Communities Opinions Sometimes Run Into Extremes; And There Are Not A Few Among Us Who, Dazzled By The Beneficial Results Of A Long Peace, Have Adopted The Opinion That War In Any Case Is Not Only Useless, But Actually Immoral; Nay, More, That To Engage In War Is Wicked In The Highest Degree, And Even _Brutish_.

Bombenangriffe, Überfälle und Entführungen sind im Irak, auch nach Ende des Krieges, an der Tagesordnung. Wieder sind Zivilisten entführt worden und die Regierungen lässt es kalt. Das Special Task Team Alpha um Colonel Jarrett ist ihre einzige Rettung, und gerät selbst in tödliche Gefahr. Maschinenpistolen ratterten. Jemand feuerte mit einer Pistole. Die Detonationen vermischten sich zu einem hämmernden Stakkato. Der Konvoi war zum Stehen gekommen. Raue Stimmen brüllten irgendwelche Befehle. Etwas explodierte, wahrscheinlich eine Handgranate. Max Steiner und Johann Weiser, die beiden deutschen Rot-Kreuz-Helfer, ahnten Schlimmes. Bei ihnen im Wagen saß Jim Svenson, der englische Journalist. Die drei Männer wechselten nervöse Blicke. In ihren Gesichtern zuckten die Muskeln. Die Tür des Landrovers, in dem sie saßen, wurde aufgerissen und ein Mann hielt die MPi in den Wagen. Er rief einige Worte in arabischer Sprache und winkte mit der Waffe. Weitere Bewaffnete zeigten sich. Etwas weiter entfernt wurde nach wie vor geschossen. Steiner, Weiser und Svenson hatten nicht verstanden, was der Bewaffnete von ihnen wollte. Vorsichtshalber hoben sie die Hände. "Ich denke, dass wir aussteigen sollten", sagte Jim Svenson. Das Entsetzen verzerrte seine Stimme. Die Stimmbänder wollten ihm kaum gehorchen. "Himmel, was wollen die von uns?" "Ja, aussteigen", radebrechte der Bew [mehr]
