the reality of it

i just read this, courtesy of jason. "shocked" by images of death and violence? what exactly did the adults quoted in this article think war would look like?

i wonder if so many people in this country, or anywhere in the world, would support this or any war...if they bothered to stop and think and see that war = brains blown out of skulls, and bodies torn completely apart, and blood everywhere, and the lives of innocent people obliterated.

and then, of course, there's that little issue of ever-growing anti-american sentiment, once people actually do realize what this war is doing. how many "911"s have to happen before people see that we can't just go around the world—deciding what's best for everyone, and waging war, and trying to kill and/or replace certain leaders—without repercussions?

okay...i need to stop. and breathe.
