we unitarily created a “no fly zone” with no international legitimacy, and then we bombed them after they shot at us for intruding on thier airspace.

at every stage we were the agressor. anyone can see this. them attacking kuwait is not equivalent to them attacking us.

Several weeks ago, we learned that suicides in the U.S. military were at a thirty year high, but it didn't occur to me to ask about the number of attempted suicides by military personnel. As a comparison, we know how many of our soldiers have been killed or died over in Iraq, but the Bush administration continues to hide the number of our soldiers wounded or maimed for life. So, we're getting scammed again by the worst and most corrupt, lying, cheating and thieving administration in American history. Attempted suicides of U.S. military personnel probably numbers in the hundreds, if not the thousands, so the Bush administration buries this information, just like they bury the total number of our soldiers wounded in action in Iraq, just like they bury news coverage of our war dead returning from Iraq. Can the Bush administration, and the blind, thumbsucking followers of the Bush administration, sink any lower?
