: So you guys put this poem up & add some commentary,
xxx Which just made a deeper impression in my head about what it must be like for the women in Iraq "prostituting" themselves to occupying soldiers.
: ... there's a reason why they leave the women alive & try to sell off the kids as slaves (& kill them off, that way).
xxx I mean, the kids who are fully indigenous to Iraq, not the half breeds. An American friend of mine was telling me today that the U.S. is full of loonies who are incredibly violent, & for YEARS these people have been shunted into the military, FOR A REASON. She wasn't saying that everyone in the military is looney &/or violent (& I can vouch for my friends in the military, none of whom are that way), but there are a LOT of loonies who serve no purpose but to kill & rape in the U.S. military.
