1. A lot of lost limbs.

And those face injuries are really tragic. I hope some kind o long term plastic surgery thing exists so they can get their faces back. :(

2. Christ.

Honestly, even if you had led the nation to war for all the right reasons - even if they had found massive stockpiles of WMDs and evidence of connections to Al Queda and even if everything had gone well during the occupation and Iraq was embarked on a new era of peace, stability and prosperity - I would still think it would be hard to sleep at night if you were one of the leaders who had sent these men into harm's way.

So how do these guys sleep at night given that the whole thing was an historical fuck up? How?

3. I'm listening to Neil Young streaming

and looking at these images. "America the Beautiful" just started up again and I am undone.

4. I have a friend fighting recruiters ....

in a heavily Hispanic community. Thank you for this horrible/godawful link. I'm sending it to her.

If even one of those kids doesn't enlist, you've earned your keep today, Nomad599.

5. PLEASE join me in recommending this thread . . . these photos . . .

though difficult to look at, should be seen by EVERYONE on DU . . .

hell, by everyone in the COUNTRY . . .

particularly Bush supporters with draft age children, grandchildren, neices, nephews, godchildren, and/or friends . . .
