Answer 1

Yep it's a real shame they didn't have a rich Daddy like G.Bush, then they could dodge the Draft, become Prez and send other young men off to a pointless war to die.

Answer 2

Well, it is certainly grim to look at that webpage, yes. But, those men died for this country, it was thier choice. Other than that, you should read in there how they actually died. Some have heart attacks, some have a serious flu, some helicopters collided during training (this happens alot here in the states as well, it just isn't publicized), some humvee's rolled over, or crashed, some buildings caught on fire....I mean think about this, there are more people who die in the US for these same things, We should be proud of our soldiers, and stand up for them, not hate on them and ridicule them. Think of that the next time you stare at that webpage. You are putting down the job they died doing, how would that make you feel if it were one of your family members being disgraced? Just some things to think about......

Answer 3

Yes this is a greaqt tradegy. One lose of a soliders life is to much. But what do you want to do? Keep the military at home where they just train ?during WW2 their were people who thought our military should not fight unless the enemy was at americas shores. we have the finest military force on the earth. yes we have had a lot killed but those of us who have been in combat(Viet Nam , Gulf 1)know we can be killed any moment but we still do our jobs.Unfortunaly people die in wars. War is HELL/

Answer 4

I think it is very sad but I also think it is war and people seem to forget that when millions of people died in WWII people weren't afraid to keep fighting for what was right. Those men died so we could win; not just run away.

Answer 5

I don't follow CNN because it vilifies America. What country are you from?
