Thanks, subby.

its once again good to know that all americans think about are themselves..
yes its a telling map , when you see the little dots where these supposed Dead American Heroes came from.

I'd be if the author actually cared enough for humanity, the map would have been of Afghanistan, or Iraq, Or Israel and the occupied territories....

but as we all know very well to an American, an American life is worth 10,000 black/ brown /or colored life.

So why show how many have died in Iraq due to bombs dropped on them? Lets show how good and heroic our soldiers are because they died for a cause, a just cause:

Saddam's link to Bin Laden
Saddam's Link to building a Nuke by purchasing Yellow cake.
Saddam's Link to the Anthrax attacks
Saddam's Link to WMD's.

I wonder what Nam would have looked like?

trouzourt, its an American website focusing on Americans-- what do you expect? Sheesh.

/what is a black/brown American worth then?

Go fark yourself. I am sure you will come back with some pithy comment about my mother or whatever, but again, GO FARK YOURSELF.

Hmm...look how many of those yellow dots are in the states that have approved gay marriage or are known as very liberal. America hating liberals indeed. (eye roll)

That being said; may those men and women whom have lost their lives for our country regardless of the justification for the conflict, be remembered as heroes.

I wonder what Nam would have looked like?



they have the casualty information online and you can map it on google map just like this guy did.



I did a map of the us forces killed for a statistics project back in 2003 (when there were a few hundred dead) and there was a huge correlation between urban cities and dead soldiers. now that the war has gone on so long, i think that correlation is less true.

MIguy: trouzourt: its once again good to know that all americans think about are themselves..

true, if we did think more of ourselves, there would be a lot fewer getting thrown into the big sandbox on foreign policy adventures-- of course then we'd be slammed for all of the folks gettin' killed because we're not playing actively enough the role of the world's policeman.

pfft I thought this was about deaths caused by drunk driving on Memorial Day. Thanks submitard for the bait and switch.

Fewer from Canada.

Shame that it could only include those two conflicts. What coast knows not our blood?

Ya those damn white christians always killing the brown peoples. Like when we bombed christian Serbians to save muslim Albanians trying to break Kosovo away from Serbia illegally. Or when muslim Turks ethnically cleansed or murdered Greeks and Armenians from Smyrna, Constantinople, Kars, and other areas. Or the occupation of Cyprus. Everything is so one sided in favor of the darn christian white peoples!!

Looks like South Dakota needs to start enlisting tumbleweeds or something.

I'm a pretty liberal grader, I guess...

Some of you guys are absolutely pathetic.

The first thing you think of when viewing the result of a lot of intense work and diligence to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country is, "Zomg, how can I turn this political/make conservatives look bad?!?"

There are plenty of times for that, but on memorial day weekend, just appreciate the sacrifices of those brave men and women who died for this country and fought to preserve its freedoms, in past and present conflicts.

Where is the map showing the almost 200,000 Iraqis that have died? Only white people count though, right?

Most sobering map ever? I don't get the sobering part. What is the thinking - that most people not know their have been so many casualties? We have forgotten we are at war?

-So many willing to pay the ultimate price...
PLEASE don't ask them to unless it's really needed!

This

and...

This is not a conservative or liberal map...It is a map representing our fallen soldiers...Any attempt by conservatives or liberals to score points with political comments is cheesy at best...Amazingly insensitive and cruel at worst.

My hat is off to those who gave all in this war...

Wait, I thought the military only recruited minorities?

Most Iraqi's are Caucasians too. So you are upset about cultural differences I suppose since you can't tell the difference between races.

1/10 just because you got responses, lower grade since you put little effort into it.

2) is that the basis of yours?

3) did the Taliban not support bin Laden, who is responsible for 9/11?

I don't know why I even bit with you. I just hope that deep down, you are not dumb enough that you seriously subscribe to these positions.

Actually not really. Still, America - it's your day to remember and mourn. I have to admit to a hat off and tears flowing during Taps at Indianapolis and Charlotte today. Whether or not you agree to why they were there in the first place - you can not detract from their courage or their supreme sarifice. I salute you.

Awwww, what's the matter? Is the little attention whore jealous of the attention being given to people who died in combat? There's a simple solution that you know. Go enlist, volunteer for duty in Afghanistan, and with a little luck, people will be memorializing your sacrifice.

I bring peace to this thread - with some troops we can all get behind.

THIS.

It is thier duty and obligation by contract through volunteering to act as directed by their commander(s). While there are situations of 'questionable legality' in the orders themselves, this is not the soldiers' choice to make. Honor them for they would have died had their orders fit your interpretation of just and reasonable cause or not.

We are not honoring the war or war-makers, we are honoring those who served and died in that service.

This sounds a little bit more accurate. I don't know when the shift occurred but Memorial Day stopped being about remembering the fallen and is now seen as "The beginning of Summer"

It's clearly liberal propaganda. He made the soldier icons so large so it would fill up the map and misrepresent the total number.
