    New Harvard Study On Iraq

    It’s sad to see war protesters, now, then and tomorrow. Just think about an 85-87 year old man, that can’t pick up his feet to walk. When that man was 18 or 20, more than likely he was in a living hell during WWII. We see him as an older man in his last days of life. If you ask them about the...
