What will the Iraqi war memorial be like?

[greatauntoftriplets]

It's inevitable that one day a new monument will arise in Washington, DC, to honor the dead of this unimaginable march of folly.

Will it be conceived and constructed by people who realize the evil that we are doing in that country? Or by some wrap-youselves-in-the-flag neocon who thinks this was a glorious crusade? How will those of us who opposed the war react to it?

Will it also honor the dead in Iraq?

I have no answers. I just wish to hell this was never going to be necessary...or a reality.

1. A representation of bodies piled on the altar of foolishness and ignorance

2. all the signs will be written in Arabic

[Solly Mack]

3. It's going to be a statue depicting Saddam's statue tumbling

and with GI's included...

In other words, much like the war itself, the memorial will also be a lie

[KansDem]

4. A giant finger...

...or pen, whichever you prefer. The symbolism will be the same, though.

Has it been definitely ruled out that it wasn't a thumb?

5. A statue of a soldier with his head hanging down in depression.

underneath his feet a minuture Iraq, with Oil wells, dead bodies and destroyed cities.

6. A huge hole in the ground...

...with an eternal 'waterfall' comprised of cash and human blood going into the hole.

10. an underground bunker or cave with cryptlike names on sides

planned from american bunkers, inspired by
caves in Afghanistan.

7. Since war supporters like to ignore the war dead...

a memorial won't be built until years after it ends. Which will give plenty of time for reflection. I'd suspect it'd be much like the Vietnam memorial.

8. a gigantic pit

a gigantic pit, filled with steaming excrement and blood, into which corporations are tossing in dead soldiers on one end and decanting oil and money on the other end, as they trample on pages of the constitution and sodomize the citizens and reporters lying prostrate at their feet.

9. a guy with a sack on his head, holding wires

11. I bet they'll name it-

STRUGGLE AGAINST RELIGIOUS EXTREMISTS???????? Grrrrr....

Even though I opposed the war, I'll still honor and recognize the American's who were exploited for financial gain.

Peace.

12. A bag of dog poop with an eternal flame for the fallen.
