Click me...please
This came in an email from PDA. Please click the link.



In honor of my son, Thor, who was deployed to Iraq on June 10, I urge you to view the following film and to then take action...

Please help me to bring him (and others like him) home alive-and-well. Together we must end this madness.

14. Kind of boring
I lost interest after the third name or so. Lists of names are pretty yesterday.

This is a better way to do it:

24. I like hearing the names and ages of the fallen,
although the site you reference is also powerful.

I want to think of each death as that of a person, not as collateral loss or a number in a causualty count, or it is too easy to dismiss.

Thank you, we all need to be reminded. I only wish it were a prime time commercial and the world was forced to watch it with their eyes wide open.

Signed the petition as well

29. Human grief is universal. It has no preference of
race, nationality or creed. Why do some Americans feel they have the monopoly on grief?

"Remember 9/11 !!!!"

As if only American mothers, fathers and families are capable of feeling a devastating loss.
