Alternet, Rest of Story - Miriam V


I have continually asked George Bush to quit using Casey's name and the
names of the other Gold Star Families for Peace loved ones to justify his
continued
killing. He continues to say this: "We have to honor the sacrifices of the
fallen by completing the mission." So the mission is now this: WE MUST
CONTINUE
KILLING AMERICANS BECAUSE AMERICANS HAVE ALREADY BEEN KILLED!!!

How can anyone, anyone in their right minds support this line of reasoning?
I have been silent on the Gold Star Moms who still support this man and his
war by saying that they deserve the right to their opinions because they are
in as much pain as I am. I would challenge them, though, at this point to
start thinking for themselves. Iraq DID NOT have WMD; Iraq WAS NOT linked to
Al Qaeda and 9/11; Iraq WAS NOT a threat or danger to America. How can these
moms who still support George Bush and his insane war in Iraq want more
innocent blood shed just because their sons or daughters have been killed? I
don't
understand it. I don't understand how any mother could want another mother
to feel the pain we feel. I am starting to lose a little compassion for
them.
I know they have been as brainwashed as the rest of America, but they know
the pain and heartache and they should not wish it on another. However, I
still
feel their pain so acutely and pray for these "continue the murder and
mayhem" moms to see the light.
