What angers me is the illogic of this...where was the candlelight vigil for #1? #145? #999? Are their deaths less significant? Apparently so according to those that disagree with the war.
I don't recall ever reading any political or military manual that says once we reach x number of deaths, it's time for retreat. Sure, maybe on a percentage basis...but nothing about specific thresholds.
Each and everyone of those killed or injured, or who will be in the future willingly volunteered for the risks, to defend our country and way of life, and to guarantee the rights for those who oppose the mission to be able to speak freely.
Each one is a hero in my book.
