1. Wow. That is the result of a stolen election, a crooked court.
I wonder what 650,000 looks like.

2. Yeah, and god knows how many severely wounded Iraqis and
Americans there are. Well, I'm sure it's all worth it to the a$$holes profiting off the war.

5. That's amazing. You cared enough to do all that.
(And yet bush won't even attend a funeral.)

Definitely recommended.

6. What about the Iraqis?
What about the contractors? What about the animals who have been used and abused and blown up in this war?

I'm sure that was not your intent, but this kind of memorial always seems to say "The American troops are the only dead that matter."

2.825 is just the tip of the iceberg.

7. This is a powerful representation.
:cry:

So many killed in this war, and this is just our troops. For what?

And then to think of all the others-military and Iraqi civilian... wounded, physically and mentally...
