Anyone else notice that or am I imagining things?

1. Yes I do and sometimes I think it is the images that are burnt into my
brain. One of the reasons I don't like the idea of war, all these soldiers and all that they are going through, most of it you really never forget. so in that case I wish they didn't have to experience any of them, thats why I am so against War period unless it is an invasion on our soil.

2. And Baghdad is probably as good as it gets
I am sure it doesn't get any better outside the capitol.

3. I'm sure it is much worst. When I think about the destruction we caused
in our illegal occupation in Vietnam it makes me sick to my stomach, so you can imagine what this illegal occupation in Iraq does to me. In my mind only people who have ever had the misfortune to have been in a war in a life or death situation should have the right to play with the tools of war. The soldiers are one of the tools too don't forget.
note: I use the word 'play' for my lack of a better word, sorry
