4. They aren't going to be 'ok" - they are growing up in a world

of violence that can only breed more violence. Don't you see - they are little kids and they are AT WAR? They don't even get to be children. Not only that, but I'll be some of those kids have actually used the weapons in their hands.

On edit: did you make a left turn when you should have made a right?

[Acryliccalico]

5. Bobweigh You seriously have some

mental issues going on there. I worked as a counselor at a mental facility and you really do. Get some help soon!!!

[NV Whino]

6. So, how can we get Georgie to look at these

Or, how about Laura... or Jenna... or Barbara?

[Left Is Write]

8. Even if they looked, it wouldn't change their minds.

I honestly believe King George doesn't give a shit about anyone but King George.

[LynzM]

7. Oh, God....

All those little tiny children... none of them asked for that...

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

How can anyone look at this stuff and say that what we are doing there is good, is the right thing???

[bloodyjack]

9. The girl in the center of this photo is holding a sign written in

what I believe to be Devanagari script.

I wonder why.

[HEyHEY]

10. Well much blame obviously goes to W

LEt's not forget the mother fucker that put the guns in their hands

[Deja Q]

11. WHere will it end? How? Can it? How do we restore our good name?

:cry:

[NewJeffCT]

24. it will take generations

Unfortunately, even that may not do the trick...

[rasputin1952]

12. War photo's have always had an impact on how we view the

horror of war.

It is even more repulsive, knowing that these children will never have the opportunity to be...children. They will grow ith great hatred for anything other than those that will protect them within their culture, a culture we know little of.

I think the most horrid aspect of this, is that there was NO necessity for any of this to happen...Iraq was never a threat to us; but I'm willing to bet it is now.

This is the hell that bush unleashed upon the innocents. I'm sure he will NEVER see these pictures, and he had better hope he never realizes what burning flesh smells like.

I despise him more with each passing day.

[ZoCrowes]

13. I am damn near in tears

How do those fuckers in Washington SLEEP AT NIGHT??!!

There is a special corner reserved in hell for bush and his cronies

[LynzM]

14. I don't know...

I almost couldn't sleep last night after looking at those... held my daughter for a long time, cried a hell of a lot, and was greatful for my life. I don't know how anyone could live with themselves, knowing they were responsible for perpetuating that. Heck, I feel crappy knowing I didn't do more to stop it, and I'm not doing much now that makes a difference :(

[ikojo]

23. Not only Bush and his cronies but those who chose

to give him the authority to wage a pre-emptive war on a sovereign nation that posed no threat to the US. Many people have to answer for this carnage.

[TheMightyFavog]

15. Some of these Kids are holding American weapons!

That's definitley a LAW



This kid's holding an M79 Grenade Launcher

Made in the USA.

Getting shot at and killed by weapons we manufactured. Thanks a lot Rumsfeld, you asswipe.

[7th_Sephiroth]

16. how has this picture NOT lead to criminal investigation

[LynzM]

17. Photoshopped, maybe?

I definitely saw the make-up of that where you could type whatever you wanted and it would post it to that sign.

Now, if that's the actual photo, I hope that guy is sitting in a cell somewhere....

[7th_Sephiroth]

19. its really good if its a photoshop

i hope this has been investigated

[NewJeffCT]

25. I think that was debunked

Though, I'm not 100% sure. The pic has been around, though, and I think I recall somebody on here figuring out that it was not true.

[NewJeffCT]

26. on further review - snopes says "undetermined"

http://www.snopes.com/photos/military/boudreaux.asp

LCpl. Boudreaux has told reporters that the sign in the picture originally read "Welcome Marines!" but was altered by someone else. He has not, however, (publicly) produced a version of the original photograph or identified who might have altered it. (If the photo was indeed manipulated, someone involved in the process had to be sufficiently acquainted with Boudreaux to be able to match his name and rank with his picture.)

[da_chimperor]

20. That photo makes me what to scream, cry, hit something, and throw up

all at the same fucking time. :grr:

[7th_Sephiroth]

21. these are our friendly soldiers at work

not to disrespect all soldiers, but if this is what our army is, i dont want them to come home

[redqueen]

[Bullwinkle925]

22. These are the images that should be shown nightly on our media......

along with the bodybags coming home to really light a fire under the Repugnant lardasses of America.

[Thor_MN]

32. This should be the halftime for the superbowl.

A silent slideshow, one image, fading to the next, blasted into the satellite feed and America's conscience....

[RevolutionaryActs]

27. I'm in tears and I seriously feel sick to my stomach.

Those poor, poor children, life should never be like that.............. it shouldn't be like that. :cry:




Bush I hope you're happy you fucking pig! :grr:

[LynzM]

33. I know...

:hug: I can't look at them again tonight... my last night was just like you are describing...

[Liberal In Texas]

28. Where are the right to lifers protesting what is in those pictures?

They will greet us with flowers and candy...

[Bullwinkle925]

36. Right - to - Lifers are only concerned with little white babies

I suspect. You're right, I wish they would come forth against this abomination.

[blondeatlast]

38. Not to mention losing interest after they are born.

You know, those "borned" kids get messy and cry and stuff.

[Bullwinkle925]

41. Jeez - you're soooo right.

And then there's the issue of 'inner-city' kids - Lord knows you can't do anything with THEM!!

[sellitman]

29. Everyone who voted for bush

Is guilty of this. Everyone!

[catzies]

30. Words fail. And the tears won't stop.

I'm sorry, Iraq. :cry:

[Thor_MN]

31. I've been saying "What war?" every time I hear that we are "at war."

"War with what nation?" rips through my head.

I still feel that WE are not at war, that this "WAR" is a dog wagging invention of the right, usurping power to further the neo-con agendas.

One thing is certain, those kids are at war. They are fighting for their very lives and are learning lessons that will be costing us for generations. If any American can look at those pictures and not feel shame, they need to institutionalized to protect themselves and society.

[Bullwinkle925]

34. You are absolutely correct!

The damage done to those young people of Iraq and surrounding areas will be felt by the generations-to-come here. I have one Repug friend who dotes over her grandsons (one is 5 and the other a newborn) and I wonder if she realizes that they may be involved in something like this in their future?!!

[LynneSin]

35. I guess they weren't too upset about the Torture....

NOT!!!!

[Radical Activist]

37. Thanks for posting

that was truly disturbing.

[blondeatlast]

39. I feel such deep shame. I think I'll give my son a special hug tonight. nt

[Willy Lee]

40. They are such beautiful people. I am crying now.

[NNadir]

42. Nothing to do but weep.

[GOPBasher]

43. The blood is on the hands of everyone who voted for Bush. nt

[NNadir]
