"A Culture of Atrocity"
the battlefield is no longer about killing
there exists physical courage in battle
but not moral
MURDER has become the order of the day
665,000 innocent Iraqis have been murdered
out of vengeance, primal impulses
for which we have no reference
no preparation, the death of compadres in battle
raises a red/blind flag:
"War is always about betrayal
betrayal of the young by the old
of the idealist by the cynics
and of the troops by politicians"
indiscriminate murder...

only 1 of 8 iraqi children
live to age 8
the result of primal impulses gone awry
betrayal...
