I won't say thanks, but I will apologize for the fact that thousands of our soldiers have been put in harm's way for a lie. A blatant, hypocritical lie. Trying to deny it only reveals your ignorance or willful denial of the facts surrounding the way this war was laid on. There were no plans for what to do with the civilians afterward(fact). There were no weapons of mass destruction(fact). The proofs offered to convince the citizens of the U.S. and the rest of the world were proven to be false(fact). bush and co. pushed ahead with this war despite the fact that every branch of national intelligence suggested that more time was needed to establish any credible evidence that there were weapons of mass destruction(fact). No. I sympathize with our soldiers, I grieve for their losses and experiences, but I don't thank them. I don't blame them, either. They're not responsible for the war. I lay the blame directly where it belongs, on the head of bush and his administration. God willing, the next president will have enough stones to see them all hauled into court for their misdeeds.
