There's really nothing honourable about dead American soldiers in an unjust war...

[hankhavelock]

But there is a lot of sadness to it! Insane tragedy brought on by an insane presidential administration who did all this for their own evil purposes.

The American soldiers who lost their lives in WW2 will always be remembered for taking part in a conflict that had immense consequenses - their lives were part of securing freedom against a tyrannic system for the entire world. Under the leadership of a few good men! That is America at its best. That is the America that will NEVER be forgotten in Europe.

But young American men and women being sacrified in an idiotic war that never should have been inititated lacks honour and only holds evil tragedy.

This is a war crime beyond reasoning. And it's not least a war crime brought on by an American president on his own people. A president who will never be held responsible for his evil doings simply because America has lost its course.

It's sad - but that's why the death of your soldiers is now not at all honourable. America lost its course - and your young men and women pay the price, not the responsible politicians. They pay a very dear and completely unfair price. They die, while Geo is grilling at home at his farm, ignorant of his wrong-doings...

I pray and believe Barack can bring back sanity to American policy and that we can stop seeing American casualties every day. This is SO horrible. America doesn't deserve this!

I simply don't understand how you good people could re-elect Geo Bush... are you happy now? Does it make you feel "full of American patriotic honour"?

I'll never understand the Republicans in their intensity... but I do remember the last, respectable Republican, Ronald Reagan, who probably screwed up American internal policy, but who stopped the cold war, because it was his passion and because he was a good man. Unfortunately, he also paved the way for the Bushes (and I'm certain not to his liking), and so be it. There's certainly foreign policy wise much more similarity between Barack and Reagan than between so many others.

Let's hope Barack can stop all this war mongering soon, so we don't have to hear about "honourable" American casualties any more. It sickens me.

I love Americans... especially when they are alive!
