Comments on: The visualization of casualties http://serendipityoucity.blogsome.com/2007/06/21/the-visualization-of-casualties/ a gift to you and me accidently on purpose somewhere but mostly in the city Fri, 08 Aug 2008 00:27:16 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1-alpha by: xtie http://serendipityoucity.blogsome.com/2007/06/21/the-visualization-of-casualties/#comment-244 Sat, 23 Jun 2007 00:04:19 +0100 http://serendipityoucity.blogsome.com/2007/06/21/the-visualization-of-casualties/#comment-244 I remember us marching against the US invasion of Iraq, now four+ years ago. Very sickening that this many Iraqui people have died in this US quest against the supposed 'axis of evil'. The death toll in Iraq amounts to 1/7th of the population of Ottawa with no end in sight, no exit plan, no official proclamation that enough is enough - kind of like the Canadian govt. participation in Afganistan (how many Canadian soldiers, and others, have to die?) Foreign invaders in Afganistan will never win ... hasn't history provided this lesson, no matter how 'just' the cause (which does not apply here in any case). Such a tragic and non-sensical waste of lives. I remember us marching against the US invasion of Iraq, now four+ years ago.
