How many Iraqi innocents were turned into a pink mist that night, with the lie about WMD?
Our bombing of wedding parties in Afghanistan.

We had no business in either place. Those 'attacks' on our service men and women, were/are not terrorist attacks against us, those were people defending their county against foreign invaders, namely us, U.S.
