Wow! Just amazing. I hadn't seen these before, I was wondering if others here had seen them. They are dated April 28, 2005. When will this madness end?

1. I hate that it is hidden.

I remember when Clinton would meet the coffin's of soldiers killed abroad:cry:

Thanks.

3. I hadn't seen them either

I definitely would have remembered the burial at sea one - it's haunting.

4. How many will it be this time for corporate profits?

How many to be sacrificed to make the rich richer?

When will we ever learn? :cry:

5. Sorry to be picky but - snow-capped mountains in Iraq?

Isn't this more likely to be Afghanistan? Happy to be corrected, of course, but where are there snow-capped mountains in Iraq?

7. There are snow capped mountains in Iraq

In the north near the Iran border. Though I can not verify if these pictures came from there.

9. Looks like Afghanistan

None of the big airfields in Iraq are in the moutainous region.

A paratrooper from the US Army 173d Airborne Brigade mans a defensive position in Northern Iraq Sunday. Several hundred paratroopers from the brigade conducted an airborne operation to seize an airfield in Northern Iraq March 26.

6. Thank you. Most of us would have never seen them, no doubt.

It's good to see the details are treated with the greatest respect.

Too bad the President hasn't treated his job with the respect it deserves.

8. Tell me again Mr. President

that lining the pockets of your Texas/corporate friends is well worth this kind of sacrifice.
