“To save your world you asked this man to die;
Would this man, could he see you now, ask why?â€
W. H. Auden
How did Americans allow this to happen? How did we allow 2,000 kids to go to Iraq to die? Irrespective of the lies of an imminent threat, the promises of low casualties and rallying cry of peace and freedom spread throughout the world, how did we allow this to happen? What was the collective thinking that let this happen; today, in America?
My heart aches for the brave souls who have fought and died and I urge everyone to attend a vigil tomorrow and to support the November 2, mass civil disobedience
