``All those poor kids``
Which ones? The ones at the World Trade Center bombings in either `93 and `01 or those in Afghanistan, or Iraq, being blown up by terrorists?
Or perhaps you`re talking about those who enlisted in the service of their country voluntarily who were serving on the USS Cole in October of 2000?
Oh, maybe you mean those soldiers now serving their country?
Best we not get sucked into the rhetoric of world politics on the EDIG BOARD.
