Snip:
As a nation, we are the greatest killing machine the world has ever known. Our unsurpassed killing technology has been sold to the American public as a symbol of pride and superiority. Killing an enemy, real or conceived, is sold to Americans as a positive experience. Through the auspices of a media well versed in hype and promotion, a relentless campaign has been waged in this country to make us comfortable with the killing game that is war.

1. Over 100,000 Iraqis dead from our vicious onslaught. No one

seems to even be worried about it. Those dead people were not our enemies nor had they done anything to provoke our wrath. It wasn't even their fault that Saddam was their leader. We have murdered them
in cold blood and are continuing to do so.

I hope the Iraqis are enjoying their new freedoms.

2. Enemies?

How easy we use that word.

3. I don't understand your comment about my use of the word

enemies. I wasn't using it casually. I don't consider the Iraqi people
to be enemies of the U.S. Do you?

4. Not your use

The use of the word "enemies: by the media is deceiving. Why re Iraqis enemies of the US?

I was following up on your words, not being critical:)

5. Several trillion borrowed dollars used mostly to develop a most efficient

and lethal killing arsenal for employment as a single individual sees fit: will this be our legacy to future generations?
