For those of you who can respond to me and let me know why it is we are at war again, please do so. But do it after you go to Fallujah in Pictures. After seeing these pictures of bloody children and soldiers immortalized in their uniforms with youthful, hopeful faces and flies feasting on dead Iraqi "insurgents" I forget why we are there. I forget why we aren't storming the capital and demanding justice. All I can think of is what will we do when these children grow up? How hard will their hearts be? How can we explain to them if we can't understand it ourselves, if we justify it, if we are ambivalent to their suffering?
Let me know your thoughts.
