OK..if you see the CNN video,how can you support this war?

I just saw the video of the military hospital in baghdad-yes,they ARE showing it on TV.I am still crying.How can these bastards in Washington sleep at night,knowing the senseless waste of life they are responsible for.I have had a strong dislike for CNN and their partisan editing,but I plan to write them and thank them for finally showing the tragedy of this war,after 4 years.

1. I have to say that Veterans and Military issues are a hot button for

me. It is one of the few things that make me lose my composure. These people do what our leaders tell them to do without question and without regard to their own safety and well being. They do, hear, see and smell things that remain with them for the rest of their lives just because someone told them to. To squander this most precious thing for political reasons is beyond any words that I can command. It is the height of evil.

2. we are in complete agreement on that one..

I get so pissed at the people who have risked nothing for this war,and have profited so much.Their regard for human life ends at their driveway...and unborn fetuses.

6. Can humanity be affirmed by the way we make decisions regarding

the welfare of children? Shouldn't adults make decisions first and foremost on how children will be affected? Should those who give orders that kill children find peace of soul?

Should those who fight for the life of fetuses condone the death of children through war?

7. so true-it is so hypocritical...as long as their kids aren't getting hurt

8. reminds me of this video-No Bravery

http://www.progressiveindependent.com/shalom/movies/nobravery.html

it haunted me in the same way that CNN video does....that those who are exploiting this war have no concept of the carnage,the suffering ...so senseless.

9. There's a troop screaming in the back ground.

Some doctor or nurse is cleaning one soldier's head wound while in another ward a soldier, apparenly getting a spinal tap, is screaming like a wounded animal.

Pretty nasty stuff.

10. the soldier with the head wound is RTD(return to duty)....after 3 of

his buddies were blown up(1 died).No wonder these guys are coming back mind-f#cked.

11. Kyra Phillips appears to be genuinely touched by this...her voice cracked.

too bad she is such a kool-aid drinker..
