...muted: the raid was the right move but hard to watch. For those who see the seizure of Elian in starker terms, vindication must wait while politicians and appeals courts have their say. The Miami relatives will insist they were reasonable; the Justice Department will contend it was a model of restraint; and others will point to the steady stream of pictures of a happy-looking Elian cavorting with his dad. Those without an agenda will want to look at the key questions...

Although, this happened quite a bit for all drugs (legal and illegal), the reason is never really explained.

In some cases, expectations not only influence the experience, but have been shown to be more important than the drug being taken...
