Iraq 2004 !

When will it all end ?




The War ! The War !

When will it all end ?

Must it wait for more bloodshed ?

More lost of innocent, .young lives?

Alas ! the innocent souls cry out in agony

As it's torn apart suddenly from it's fragile encasement

All the potential Lawyers, Doctors, Engineers

And World Leaders lay buried in the dust.

What a waste of precious lives!

(The mother clutched her dead babe in her loving arms
as tears of sorrow flow down her burning cheeks amidst the rubble of the last bomb.Another babe is pulled from the rubble barely alive, her wondering eyes scanned the angry faces as she is led to the ambulance.)

when will it all end?

..And all because of a madman's twisted vision !

No, Lori and Lisa are not right, you are. The fight did not begin here but was well orchestrated for a specific purpose and Bush played right into their hands. Very very sad. Thanks for being a voice of wisdom and reason, Michael.

(((michael)))

it will never end, i fear...especially since many of the innocents were used by their own parents and religion to target american and allied troops. why do these people insist on putting their women and children in harm's way?

still, a thought provoking cry from the heart

(((HUGS))) and love, karla. :(

Well, the troops are nearly depleted, the Nat'l Guard is there... what next? The police force? The Boy Scouts? got your gun loaded? Do I see a surprised look on your face? With this president, I think we can expect the unexpected. I seem to have an unpopular view around here, but I WILL NOT be voting for Mr. Bush! katy xox.
