79. HOW MANY MORE NEED TO DIE

My son served with the 82nd Airborne in Iraq. This administration has put his life and the lives of all who serve in jeopardy for fraudulent reasons. They used lies to sell this war to the public so that super-rich corporations could get even richer by securing multi-billion dollar contracts in Iraq even while our soldiers were engaged in active combat. A disproportionate number of our soldiers are minorities. They and their families will never benefit from the profits of war. If this administration continues to doll out contracts to special interests, 99% of the spoils will go to the upper 1% in corporate America at the expense of the American taxpayer. Prior to attempting to liberate Iraq, the administration need to look at its own discriminatory policies enacted in the United States. Perhaps when this country resolves its racial problems, they may than address other Nations discriminatory practices and the lack of democracy. Our troops need to come to this country and safeguard human rights for Blacks and minorities, from this administration, and from a justice system that is so unjust.
