Prayers and tears in Falluja
Saturday, November 06, 2004
Read this BBC NEWS report. War has never been so "clean" that only soldiers' lives were in jeopardy. It never will be. Here in the U.S. we must think about the innocents who are being killed, injured or made homeless by this war. The measure of this war (and any war) should not only be based on U.S. forces killed or injured, but also on the Iraqi citizens (young and old, "insurgent" and bystander...) who have been killed, maimed, brutalized.
Dear W: Every nation's actions must stand the test of "moral values". Killing is killing and always will be. The U.S. does not have a "free ride" ticket that allows it to kill innocents and not atone for the devastation. Know that the world is watching. Oh and if he didn't tell you the last time you two talked , God is watching too.
