More Lives Changed Forever
Just two days ago, there was a story that 6 American troops were killed in Iraq. Today, the news is reporting that 14 http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8797271/ Americans were killed in Iraq in one incident. With these new losses, that brings our service member war dead toll http://icasualties.org/oif/ to 1821. With every fatality, families, friends, and communities are changed forever because someone does not return home. The last 20 Americans were all from the state of Ohio. How many more will need to die before this administration admits to its mistakes in going to war in Iraq?
