those girls were kidnapped,raped,became pregnant,and held against their will for years.

the troops are a voluntary force who were doing what their commander in chief ordered them to do. his war and it`s aftermath will go down in history as one of the worse military campaigns in history. history will record that bush was one of the worst presidents in our brief history.

yes i find it sick that he would ride with the people who believed they were doing their duty for god and country . i find it sick that bush used so many who paid the price so he could prove to his dad that he could finish what his dad refused,for good reason,to do-kill saddam hussein.
