They laugh because that is how they deal with this shit. I know I do, humour is how I would deal with it. I'm glad the media is covering this 24/7.

yeah. i actually agree. it's like world war 2, when everybody had to donote scrap metal. Too me the war in Iraq is a mixture of world war 2 and vietnam, more so vietnam.

What does that have to do with soldiers using scrap metal as secondary armor? Which our government should have the dignity to provide.

And what does this war have in common with WWII?
