This has overgeneralization written all over it. Not all casualties shown in these pictures were attacking us, or doing anything wrong...you seem to be ignoring that fact. I'll bet more than a few of the Iraqis that were cheering in the street when Saddam was captured, and his government destroyed have been injured/killed accidentily during the war. War isn't a pretty thing, and not all deaths are justified. Your statements are a direct contradiction of the entire goal of the war (It's called "Operation: <i>Iraqi Freedom</i>" not "Operation: Kill all Iraqis, including innocents") It's okay to be upset, but I don't think you need to take it out on women and children who were killed while we were in the process of knocking their tyrannous leader out of power.
