 U.S. Loses 9 to Taliban StrikePosted on Jul 13, 2008
Nine American soldiers are dead after a Taliban raid on a small combat outpost in the Afghan province of Kunar, near Pakistan. Coalition forces rarely experience such losses. The attack took place close to where the U.S. allegedly killed 47 civilians, a charge the military denies.

Another nine American lives sacrificed at the altar of our Liar-In-Chief!
And another sad day to be added to the sad long saga when America lost its moral compass and its direction as the War-Monger-In-Chief was crowned as the first “evil king” of the twenty-first century, as a result of a stolen election!
Will history pass its judgment only on the one Liar-In-Chief / the one War-Monger-In-Chief, or on the whole nation that allowed this travesty to go on for seven and half years now, and still counting?!

Nine More Americans Martyed In Afghanistan
“Who’s to blame?”
“Us.”
“Why us?”
“The war’s being carried out in our names.”
“How can we stop the slaughter?”
“We elect a president who’ll end the Afghanistan-Iraq War, negotiate with Iran plus turning things around here at home.”
“And then what sort of world?”
“It’ll be up to us.”
