105 Dead in October in Iraq
Edited on Wed Nov-01-06 02:46 PM by TayTay
105 American familes whose lives will never be the same.

OMG, 105 Americans died there this month. Hundreds were wounded. God only knows how many Iraqis were wounded or killed.

Excuse me, what was that pie-fight about on the TV? There was a pie-fight about a botched joke?

105 American families will be forever grieving and the media yawns.

5. RIP our fallen American Heroes
your sacrifice is a noble one, it is sad that it had to be for a war based on lies.

7. All my uncles, and most of my aunts served honorably
and my brother served 6 years in active and 18 years in the Reserves for the Navy. That was honorable service.

But what, exactly, is the plan for Iraq? Why did this people die?

What noble cause?

6. I am wondering if that is an accurate count.
I saw the video of the ammodump attack and read reports of up to 300 dead.

Missed this the first time around and caught it last night. After reading the follow up report in Cleveland indymedia I wondered if they underestimated the count.
