Baghdad is worse then it has ever been before. The level of civilian casualties has gone up since Bush implemented his new plan of terror. Well over two hundred people have died in less then 48 hours.
All of this is done with my taxes, and the taxes payed by all of the people that live in either the US, or the the UK. Whether or not our side pulled the trigger it's our countries fault whether we wish to accept this reality or not.
While all this goes on we sit and mourne 32 US citizens that were killed by a random act of violence?
I am absolutely mortified by what happened down south on Monday, but let me ask you this: What makes those 33 people's lives worth more the thousands that our tax dollars have killed or helped kill in the last five years? Why isn't CNN giving all the US soldiers who died in our war of terror a twenty minute blurb on their webpage that talks about each of their lives as if they "were more then just numbers" too?
