On one hand who wants a lunatic waving a sword at you kicking down door. On the other you hear someone screaming and it's natuaral to try and help a women who is screaming.

When the stakes are big enough -- like attacking the President/Vice President anything related to the war on terror -- any lie will do, but for something like this?

The guy with the sword is the bad guy here, breaking and entering another's home, claiming what he claimed. The problem is, he waited about <b><i>10 hours</i></b> to make his "rescue attempt": "But if Van Iveren was attempting to rescue what he thought was a woman in danger he was "obnoxiously <strong><a href="http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=569088" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">late</a></strong>," said Stieghorst, who said he watched the movie between 1 and 2:30 a.m., but Van Iveren did not burst into his apartment until about 11:30 a.m." I gotta disagree with your characterization on this, Baklava. The guy with the sword is the bad guy here, breaking and entering another’s home, claiming what he claimed.

The problem is, he waited about 10 hours to make his “rescue attempt”:

“But if Van Iveren was attempting to rescue what he thought was a woman in danger he was “obnoxiously late,” said Stieghorst, who said he watched the movie between 1 and 2:30 a.m., but Van Iveren did not burst into his apartment until about 11:30 a.m.”
