The "almost gentlemanly approach"?  Technically true: not a single missile
has cruised a woman so far.  Indeed, I hope this WSJ article gets back to
Belgrade posthaste, to be used for purposes of moral suasion when NATO
ground troops first wander into mortar range, and when business-suited
Yugoslav saboteurs search the streets of New York for appropriate targets.
Yes, let's keep this party civil!
