Yes, certainly I agree. I was only offering if necessary as a temporary
location.

   Jessica Lynch became an icon of the war, and the story of her capture by
   the Iraqis and her rescue by US special forces will go down as one of the
   most stunning pieces of news management yet conceived. It provides a
   remarkable insight into the real influence of Hollywood producers on the
   Pentagon's media managers, and has produced a template from which America
   hopes to present its future wars.  -- The Guardian, 15 May 2003
