How many times must a cannon ball fly?

That is SO disheartening! And to think my son may have to fight this war.

It's harder to look at the pictures of civilian casualties on the mindprod.com site Every time I see it I can't understand how ANYONE can support something that causes that... it's sickening.

It makes me wanted to scream and cry and throw up every time I see what humanity is capable of when they want people dead.

be nice to have a vigil...light a candle for all the dead both sides at midnight...on news years eve or something.....hard for me to view too. I live 90 miles from an amored based Kileen Texas. A number of them come down and not a single one has said anyting postive about the amerian presence over there. I mean I know about the oil and all. KInda tuff. The soiilders have a penpal club maybe that is worth looking into.

I think that is an excellent idea! Every time I see reports of soldiers and civilians killed in the Iraq fiasco, I think, "Does George ever watch any of these?" I'll bet he doesn't.

Good idea....can you get more info on that penpal club?

George Bush cares about George Bush....he has shown that

FYI: Know that these 1331 are battlefield deaths. I've heard that if an injured or wounded soldier is evac'd to a hospital and dies subsequently he does not figure in these numbers. The last figures I saw, from perhaps a month ago, showed actual dead coalition numbers of about thrice the published casuality figures.

To be honest, as tragic as the military deaths are, I have a great deal more sympathy for the 100,000+ innocent civilians that have been killed.
