    thank you canada for doing this

    this iraq war is vietnam all over again

    the same mentality that got us into vietnam got us into iraq

    until we americans learn we will continue to have these type of wars

    as an american I apologize to the world for our aggression

    it appears that a severe economic decline in america will awaken americans to thier imperialism

    but not anytime soon so again thank you for allowing soldiers and their families to come to your country when their conscious tells them they can no longer participate in america’s wars for profits.
