"You gotta break some eggs to make an omelet" (Picture heavy - GRAPHIC)

DU














from: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=&imgrefurl=http://www.krysstal.com/democracy_iraq_fallujah.html&h=250&w=350&sz=52&tbnid=A0caB5BiXUUJ:&tbnh=82&tbnw=116&hl=en&start=18&prev=/images%3Fq%3Diraq%2Bchild%26svnum%3D100%26hl%3Den%26hs%3DwAh%26lr%3D%26safe%3Doff%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DG

There's 2600 hits for Iraq Child in Google image. Are these the legacy of America? No wonder we're hearing more of suicides, killings and PTSD related to returning GI's. May God forgive us.

Is this the freedom that we spread?

It's time Americans stood up for what America is and took back our country.

Support the cause of PEACE.

1. The crying man holding his dead child
is simply heartbreaking!

Argh! I hate W so much! And what he has done in our name makes me ashamed.



THE AMERICA I KNOW & WAS RAISED IN IS BETTER THAN THIS!!

3. I couldn't search much for the photos because the tears got in the way...
There are way to many pictures like these out there.

But "we're building schools?"

11. Like probably all others here,
That picture "grabbed" me. I'd like to use it where it would do the greatest good. However, it's provenance is uncertain. Here's what "properties" yielded: "skfriends.com/monetxtreme4/ss04-1117/images/41-Father-Carrying-Dead-Child-in-Iraq-Digital-Painting.jpg" (The "http://www." part was removed to prevent the image itself from being displayed)

I've been unable to navigated successfully through that confusing website (which ultimately carries a modest price tag). If anyone here can 'validate' that photo, I'd be deeply grateful.

12. I've seen it before in an unretouched format.
I don't have the stamina to hunt it down though.

Peace.

14. Thanks. That's a considerable validation.
However, I can't use it yet in the manner I'd like to. I hope someone else here can bring it further.

I looked briefly and could not come up with any provenance on the image.

17. Thanks. That pretty well 'validates' it.

It seems to be the same devastated father. Here's the URL of that photo (minus the "http://www." portion): azator.gr/archive/2004/photos/Iraq_child_1_10_04.jpg

The web page is in Greek, with an option of Armenian; neither of which is of any use to me. But at this point, the Burden of Disproof shifts to the doubter.

On edit: No, it's NOT the same father. I didn't look carefully enough.

IS THE PEACE OF THE COMMON GRAVE

Wumpscut
Totmacher

sie ahnten nichts von mir
von meiner wilden gier
doch als du kamst zu mir
da wurde ich ein tier
kein gedanke an danach
als ich dir die knochen brach

tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot

tot

fuer mein naechstes leben
schoepfe ich neue kraft
ich bin dem toeten ergeben
in der einzelhaft

tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot
tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot

ein dahinsichen
von gottes hand
ich kann dich riechen
und das denken verschwand

tot tot tot tot tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot tot tot tot tot

ich mache dich tot ich mache dich tot
ich mache dich tot ich mache dich tot

sag mir was du willst
dass du meine sehnsucht stillst
ich mache dich tot fuer immerdar
von blut alles rot auf gottes altar

tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot

ich mache dich tot fuer immerdar
ich mache dich tot glaub mir es ist wahr
ich mache dich tot fuer immerdar
ich mache dich tot auf gottes altar



Wumpscut - Deadmaker

They didn't expect me
never expected my wild lust
I turned into an animal
No thought about afterwards
When I broke your bones

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red

Dead

For my next life (life after death in the religious sense)
I get the power I need
I’m a slave to the killing
In solitary confinement

("einzelhaft" (solitary confinment) has become part of the german vocabulary after the terrorist attacks of the Red Army Fraction during the 70's. It's used for people in prison, who are put into complete isolation not just from other people, but from all kinds of information. It's what might be known in the US as "sensual deprivation", a kind of torture-technique to destroy people's self.)

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red
Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red

Wasting away
By God’s hand
I can smell you
And my thought disappeared

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red
Dead, dead, dead, dead

I make you dead I make you dead
I make you dead I make you dead

Tell me what you want
That you fill my longing (that you satisfy my desire)
I make you dead for evermore
God’s altar stained from blood so red

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red

I make you dead for evermore
I make you dead believe me its true
I make you dead for evermore
I make you dead on God’s altar

5. The sad truth is most Americans don't give a diddledy-damn what is done
by our country in the name of freedom and liberty.

7. Those could be my babies *crying* I am so filled with HATE for
the man who calls himself my leader. I don't know how to deal with it except pray and live on DU.

8. It really is awful
:( If this is showing the world what "freedom" and "Democracy" is I'm sure there are people out there who wouldn't want it. :( It's so horrible. And of course as you mentioned many soliders are coming back with PTSD and other mental health issues and how are they going to get help if Bush is cutting VA benefits? :\
