This is a disgrace -- the OTHER Iraq casualties site (sorry if DUPE)
Edited on Mon Oct-24-05 08:12 AM by Lancer
Just for the heck of it I typed in icasualties.COM. The official site is www.icasualties.org

The dot com site looks official -- the banner has photos of grieving family members, US flag backdrop, etc. Then you realize it's nothing but ads for funeral homes, casket makers and monument companies. I was appalled.

Has anyone else clicked on this fake link by accident or design? If so, what was your reaction?

1. Thank you for posting this; I've passed the info on to Pat.
Dunno if they can do anything about it, I presume not, but best they are at least aware of it.

And yeah that's disgusting.

This might be useful >>>

<edit>Might be a good idea to check who owns all the sites listed on the .com page.

Queried whois.domainnamesales.com with "icasualties.com"...
