[oblivious]

1. My son called me last week from Ramadi and said the war
is lost - they are just going thru the motions, again, forced to carry
out orders and risk their lives for an unobtainable and unjust goal.

2. ...already the third bloodiest month this year in Iraq for occupation forces.

3. ...over one third of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans seeking medical treatment are reporting symptoms of stress or other metal disorders. This is a tenfold increase in the last 18 months alone.

4. As a mother, I want him to do whatever is necessary to come home, and will
not sugar-coat my thoughts: that he should kill everything and come
home.

5. ...he feels that daisy-cutting the town (Ramadi) is the only option.
