Does it matter that the United States is in an Iraqi Conflict not an Iraqi War? When it comes to death, I think not.
In America the burden of this conflict has been placed on a few military personnel and their families, while the other 99% of us here in America sacrifice very little or nothing.
In Iraq, the majority of the burden seems to be forced upon the citizens.
Without getting into the right or wrong of it, the fact remains that Human Beings are dying.
