Maybe 31 dead Marines today? It makes me puke to have someone try to convince me that this war in Iraq is a noble venture, something to be proud of. It even makes me sicker to hear young soldiers try to justify and condone what is going on--even as 31 of their fellow soldiers are killed for no good reason.
To hell with the people who say they are fighting for our freedom and security. Iraq was no threat to the US. The soldiers are fighting for a political and economic agenda that regards them as so much fodder. Chris was so cavalier saying that these deaths are just to be expected as a part of war. A war for what? The dead soldiers have no "freedom" or "democracy." Neither they nor their families were about to lose their freedom to Saddam. THIS IS TOTAL BULLSHIT!!!
I FEEL SO GODDAMN HELPLESS!!!
