He considers this whole horrific war a "mere comma in history".

MSM seems to consider these deaths and maimings to be a nuisance to report, something that takes away from the Ana Nichol type stories.

May the family of these soldiers find peace. God help us.....

For what?

Could we at least be honest about why we are dying in Iraq?

:patriot:

You died because of a corrupt President who is loyal only to his war-profiteering friends.

May their families find peace. According to icasualties.org, this makes 3,301 sacrificed so that Dubya could play "war president." In addition to all of those badly damaged, both physically and emotionally, and the hundreds of thousands dead and injured Iraqis, there is going to be a lot of very bad karma for the ones who insisted on this fiasco.

so far this is the 4th worse month since the war started for the brits. if they lose a 3 more troops this month it will second worse month since the first month of the war when they lost 27.

it seems to be working does`t it george?

:grr:

..it's the biggest news to hit this place since Vimy.

I see us now going through the same "support the troops" = "support the mission" bs ya'll went through. Courtesy of our mainstream media, which is wholly behind the war.
