I totally agree, and I wish I could elabourate, but I am typed out at the moment.
This reminds me, though, of the picture my little brother drew after 9/11 of the Iron Giant and several superheroes of his own creation holding up the Twin Towers and shooing away the airplanes. Childish innocence, maybe, but isn't that what we all want? It's awful to feel helpless and see horrible things happen: what if we could stop even the most wretched of catastrophes?
