I mean, I'm sure we're all better off discussing the various denotations and connotations of the word "cite," but the whole "Iraq war" thing seemed to be another decent topic for this board.

The death toll in Lebanon in the last few days is not that far north of the number of people killed in Iraq, but people are so freaking inured to the massive clusterfuck that is Iraq that it barely registers.
Cue Hank to say it's comparable to Detroit.
