I often hid from the critical eye of their cameras and their omnipresent digital recorders, wary of the critique implicit in every captured moment.

But the central point is that any campaign against Iraq, whatever the strategy, cost and risks, is certain to divert us for some indefinite period from our war on terrorism. ↗
