"US announces 9 troop deaths in Iraq
Centre Daily Times - all 304 related »"
Inside you read:
"A car bomb exploded Saturday in the Shiite holy city of Karbala as the streets were packed with people heading for evening prayers, killing at least 58 and wounding scores"
What makes 9 American lives more important than 58 Iraqi lives?
And people use this to say we need to get out. This proves we need to stay.

Oh, but not only that........
THE TROOPS DIDN'T EVEN DIE IN THAT ATTACK!
"The Americans killed in Iraq included five who died in fighting Friday in Anbar province, three killed when a roadside bomb struck their patrol southeast of Baghdad and one killed in a separate roadside bombing south of the capital."

Because American's place a higher premium on the value of life.

I don't know if it proves whether or not the U.S. needs to stay in Iraq, but it certainly is sickening how the 9 troop deaths are considered more important than the other deaths.

i've got faith a similar way. there is plenty from Nascar that we omit, reason they in no way tutor it, what is going on interior the pits, the storage aspects, each sort of issues. Then there is often drag racing, I luv drag racing yet while it somewhat is on a similar time as a Nascar race, i do no longer watch it. what's incorrect with lower back interior the Day, the action pictures approximately Senior, highlights from the NHRA, something race proper somewhat of the crap they have on there now. Their total venue has replaced, velocity is approximately autos, no longer certainty B/S. JMHO

You know what's funny?
ALL the guys saying that our troops must remain in Iraq, once you ask them why they're not over there themselves, say they were in the army already.
Then, if you ask them for specifics like commanding officer, batallion, ID, etc. they weasel it out. Or if they reply, once you go check and ask them more questions, their stories don't scan.
Funny, no?
