NEW YORK It was bound to happen sooner or later, and in what
newspapers in Kentucky are calling a first, one American has
killed another in a dispute over the Iraq war.
It happened at Floyd County flea market on Thursday, when two
friends, who were firearms vendors there, drew guns after
quarreling about the war. Douglas Moore, 65, of Martin, who
backs the war, shot and killed Harold Wayne Smith, 56, of
Manchester, who opposed it, according to investigators.

It is only those who have neither
fired a shot nor heard the shrieks
and groans of the wounded who cry
aloud for blood, more vengeance, more
desolation. War is hell.
--William Tecumseh Sherman
