As they did all weekend. These poor people...

1. Look at the smallest child in that photograph.

Why?

2. She's beautiful; will be a great beauty IF she lives that long.

Oh wait, that makes me a TRAITOR for seeing them as human beings just like me, instead of as vermin garbage, the way a True American Patriot does. :eyes:

3. She'll be a neurotic beauty.

What kind of a way is that to grow up? What the hell did she ever do to anyone?

4. Bringing "freedom" to Iraq.

The irony of what we are allegedly doing and the photos is overwhelming.

5. I remember Vietnam....

this is so like it... :(

7. It isn't "freedom" of any kind. Not to the Iraqis. Only to our own

corporations.

It's about the oil and protecting of. Saddam WAS a factor, and an increasing danger because he wanted to keep as little of the oil going to the US as possible.

Worst of all, Iraq is nothing compared to what is about to happen. Esepcially the tricks to be played that will get at least 52% of the public to agree with *.

6. 5 conditions, from left to right:

Outrage, disbelief, pint-sized utter fear, fear, disgust.

Add another terrorist to the group, boys. And she's a chick too. Had Mr Soldier Man on the left turned around, you could guess what he might eventually attempt. x(

8. good observations...

and well said!

[manic expression]

9. Wow.

The smallest girl reminds me of the girl in the red coat in "Schindler's List" (sorry if I spelled it wrong).

Those pictures are so disgusting and sad and true of the situation. However, I do feel a lot of hope for Iraqis and Iraq.

10. There is no hope

as long as the US is there slaughtering them.

:(

[manic expression]

11. There is always hope

The US cannot slaughter them forever. The future is inevitably theirs. When the US leaves Iraq, they will be able to have the independence and justice which we have denied them for so long.

Everything ends, and with an ending, there is always a new beginning.
A Phoenix will arise from the ashes we have made.

12. Worked in Falluj after Election Theft 2004, Karl Rove Will Use Any

Diversion to create a smokescreen, even if the smoke is made of human ashes, the hide the administrations crimes, until * can get safely sworn in again. There must be a really dangerous smoing gun out there somewhere.

13. "Liberation", Bush-style. n/t
