Save 5,000 Iraqi babies by killing 50,000? That makes sense. Estimates of Iraqi dead are as high as 500,000. Many of them civilians.

Those bombs we drop also have highly-toxic chemicals in them, so even if you're not blown up you can suffer terrible symptoms for life. You can easily become deaf or blind for instance. Or get some kind of Gulf War syndrome. Or worse.

Dont pretend you care so much about the children. You care about Bush. Bush right or wrong. And right now no one knows what the damage and true cost of a war will be? Not even the Shrubmeister himself. In fact if he tries to reassure you he's lying, because it could turn out to be a long, drawn-out messy bloodbath.

If we had the UN plus a Northern Alliance type army to do the dirty work I'd feel a lot better, but we're all alone. Ever seen BLACKHAWK DOWN? Multiply that times 50 and you'll start to get the idea. Bombs alone wont win this war. Not even close.
