Nothing of value

THE EDITOR: I do hope that Dr Steve Smith does not worship false Gods and idols as his literary porridge would suggest. It is apparent that he sees through one eye only and instead of offering something of intrinsic value, is content to repeat in his letter of the 23rd that “America needs Iraqi oil”. He supports the deadly and unwarranted intrusion in which untold numbers of innocents were killed, and perhaps, he feels so strongly, that if the innocents were members of his immediate family, his sentiments would be the same. There are people like that everywhere as there are doctors of death. Even as I disagree with him, I defend his right to enable us to assess his idiosyncracies. Only in TT!
