Bravo comment: Take a second to think about the literally tens of thousands of Iraqis who have died since we started this war. Now remember that this war was started on false pretenses (lies).

Thousands of American soldiers, still alive. Trillions of dollars, still in America and out of the hands of war profiteers.
I think we just struck the true motive for all this killing and misery.
