Thank you for Ellen Goodman’s column. She rightly describes the current discussion of our attack on Libya as “a debate about inaction and wrong action.”

As I witnessed on TV the technological efficiency with which the bombs, guided by lasers, did their work, a quote from Alexander Woollcott came to mind: “The worst sin of all is to do well that which shouldn’t be done at all.”
