Iraqi Civilian Deaths ... caused by Bush's unprovoked war

 

Remember the families too, both Iraqi and American
Some of you may have already seen this comment that one of our readers posted to one of our blogs, but I think it is important and want to be sure more of you see it. Here is what she said:

I personally think this war was only a way for the so called power of U.S.Presidency and his followers to show they have power. They may have to a point, but this is not the way to show it. Most of the insurgents are not Iraqis anyway!! OIL!!!! That's what I think it is. Yes, he could have paid for it without killing our soldiers, but then it wouldn't have made Bush as noticeable to the world. My husband is stationed in Iraq right now, and we see no reason for this so called war!!! It is only a power struggle for oil and publicity!!! It is nothing to do with right and wrong!!! How many American Soldiers need to die or innocent Iraqis, before it is stopped. Not to mention what it is doing to the families left behind.

I'm a Viet Nam veteran myself. My daughter was born before I was able to get back from that war zone. So I truly understand what you mean about the difficulties families must endure because of Mr. Bush's war. And as you point out, both American families and Iraqi families, all innocent pawns in these oil men's game, are suffering the consequences of this ill-planned war.

. . . Peace, love, & light to all who are struggling to understand what is really going on. May our human family soon collectively "see the light", whatever that may mean . . . Lorenzo
