My fellow Americans...
What can I say about this country? Bush and co. had a plan. They needed a catalyst. 9-11 came around. Perfect. They go ahead with their plan. Many people are killed in the process. 1100 American troops so far. Its estimated 100,000 civilians in Iraq. It was estimated that maybe 5000 civilians died in Afghanistan. These estimates are just that...estimates. Does it matter? It all comes down to two kinds of people. The kind that see this as just and the kind who don't. These are just numbers. They don't mean much. But if I began killing one person a day...every day...starting today...it would take me 287 1/2 years to kill this many people. Many of the people who lead these casualty studies agree that these are probably conservative numbers. There are probably many more who have died. This is what this country voted for. Can you blame a man for being ignorant? Can you blame a man for murder when he had a purpose in mind. These questions are all moot today as the decision has been made. I don't know how I ended up here. Land of the free to kill, home of the brave enough to send a child to kill for you. Call me unamerican...call me what you will...but I am ashamed to call myself an American today.
