45. reminds me of the CHILDRENS CRUSADES, when KIDS were sent off
Edited on Mon Jan-10-05 11:50 PM by diamond14
to FIGHT FOR GOD in the Holy Land.....none came back...ALL were killed....sad.....


Heave HO....onward Christian Soldiers...CRUSADING through the biblical lands of Babylon !!!!


What still amazes me is that the parents of these young women just SIT THERE and CHEER for bush* and his crusade.....their daughters will most certainly be breathing 'Depleted Uranium' as the desert dust storms blow around, and drinking foul water, and inhaling burning carcinogenic smoke from the continuous oil fires, suffer permanent nerve damage from insect bites, never seen in America....

so even if they are in a 'support' role....any possible off-spring will be majorly deformed, their daughters will suffer the rest of their shortened lives from cancers, lung-diseases, nerve damage....and these bush*-worshiping parents will be stuck with caring for these women, as bush* cuts Veteran's Benefits.....



"All I really want out of this is to be able to walk again..."
Lt. Jordan Johnson, 23, in charge of a platoon protecting the general of the 1st Armored division, was en route from Baghdad International Airport July 20, 2003 when her humvee crashed and flipped, smashing her leg and tail bone, and putting her into a coma. Another soldier died In the crash. Photographed during rehabilitation at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Tx, March 26, 2004.
