If Dead Men Is What They Wanted...
Stardate 4764.4
Yesterday, the US death toll in the Iraq conflict reached 2000. That number seems to pale compared to the 100,000 plus estimated civilian deaths in the same time span. Still, we must sympathise with the families of these men and women who have sacrificed their lives for a cause that has been a lie from the start. The premise for the invasion is a joke of course, and the continued occupation (and continued sacrifice of life) is in such a state as to have no solution for a very long time.
This is an interesting site where a photographer discusses some of the pictures he has taken covering the soldier's funerals... PLEASE take the time to watch it.
Remember who sent these men and women there.
