There are no pictures for a reason

The dominoes keep falling
Saddam, Osama Bin Laden.
Egypt, Syria, and now Libya

The images on the news were and are graphic and sobering.

While I hope and pray for a democratic process for the people of these countries, I am left wondering if it is possible.
And yes
Despite our country's own problems, I still think it is better than the alternatives.

A country and its people are defined in part by how justice is served.

Revenge was exacted on Gadhafi today, brutally and swiftly, a mirror of his method of government.
A broad crude stroke.

Justice?
A more complex process.

Praying for strength and wisdom for those who lead, those who follow, those who serve and those who question.
