1. We, as a nation, simply cannot sustain this kind of carnage.
We are the cause of this murder - whether we dropped the bombs, fired the howitzer, pulled the trigger, or not. The presence of US troops in Iraq is the cause of this death and destruction and the question is - has the American public grown to accept the role of imperialistic butcher?
