In Memoriam: Iraq War Dead

Ten years ago today, the worst president in U.S. history, George W. Bush, declared war on a country that had nothing to do with the 9/11 attack on America. Yet Bush, Cheney and other neocons tied their desire to invade Iraq to 9/11 to get support behind the war that has killed almost 200,000 military and Iraqi civilians and cost our country trillions of dollars.

There is so much more to write about this horrible crime, but for today I just want to say that those who volunteered to go over there did so with good intentions. I want to express my sympathy to their families -- also to the families of the Iraqis killed. I'm very sorry.
