In response to: Rape-Slaying in Iraq by US Soldiers

"The girl was sprawled naked in the house, her torso and head burned by flames, and she had a single bullet wound under her left eye, he said.

He said he found Abeer's 5-year-old sister, Hadeel, in an adjacent room dead from a bullet wound in the head. The children's father, Qassim, and mother, Fikhriya, suffered similar deaths, he said. The mother's abdomen and chest were riddled with bullets"

Note: the photo of the girl is not Abeer Qassim al-Janabi, she is just a girl, any girl, who could have been Abeer.

What was done was very terrible. A combination of an uncaring youth, wisky and pain killers.

Young men who would have never been excepted in the military eight years ago.

The American public is made to believe that this a war against terrorism that we cannot loose while the oil companies and oil barrons all over the world rake in billions.

America has as much to be proud of as it has to be ashamed of, in a free society goodness does not always rule.

Those who stand for goodness must not stand down.
