Sorry to be so contemplative and brief these days, dear friends. Haditha's got me down. This war's Mai Lai incident, the killings in Haditha horrify me not only because they happened, not only because we didn't hear about them for over 6 months, but most of all because it brings into searing clarity the fact that we're all watching exactly what we feared would happen, happen. It's called a Cassandra Complex, and it just hurts like hell that so many PEOPLE suffered the multitudinous effects of the Vietnam War, and we still couldn't stop the Iraq War from turning into another goddamn mess of broken humanity and fruitless warmongering. And Bush hasen't even extended an APOLOGY from the AMERICAN PEOPLE. And I am fucking sorry. Sorry for the Iraqis, sorry for the soldiers whose psyches snapped, sorry, sorry, sorry.
