2 U.S. DEATHS IN AFGHANISTAN RAISE DEATH TOLL TO 47 FOR AUGUST

KABUL -- Two bombings in Afghanistan's most violent region killed two U.S. service members Monday, the last day of the deadliest month of the war for U.S. forces.

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/world/AP/story/1210438.html

The attacks brought the number of American troops killed in Afghanistan in August to 47, the highest monthly death toll for the U.S. since the conflict began in 2001. NATO officials confirmed the deaths but did not release any other information pending notification of family members.

BULLET WITH A NAME ON IT. MUSIC VIDEO OF INTENSE COMBAT ACTION

The media tells us every single day how few people care about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but that will not deter this blogger from bringing to the thousands of people who everyday log on my site to see the latest in what is happening in the wars. A military draft would turn all the selfish people in the U.S. into caring about the war in a heartbeat and I'm all for reinstating the draft. This video is a brutal depiction of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the song "Bullet with a Name on It" is the perfect background for this remarkable piece of footage.

HEARTBREAKING VIDEO TRIBUTE TO OUR TROOPS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN

This video is a gut-wrenching tribute to the men and women of our Armed Forces who are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. This blogger posts videos like this on Facebook, but rarely does anyone comment about them because the Facebook members have no vested interest in either war. On the other hand, my blog has had over 247,000 "hits" or visitors in just a little over a year so there are some people who care but they are not members of Facebook, Twitter or any of the other childish "social network" sites.

AUGUST DEADLIEST MONTH FOR U.S. IN AFGHANISTAN

KABUL — An American service member died Friday when his vehicle struck a bomb in eastern Afghanistan, making August the deadliest month for U.S. forces in the nearly eight-year war.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/08/28/us-firing-on-afghan-clini_n_270997.html

The grim milestone comes as the top U.S. commander prepares to submit his assessment of the conflict – a report expected to trigger intense debate on the Obama administration's strategy in an increasingly unpopular war.

The latest death was reported as Afghan officials announced an 80 percent increase in the number of major fraud allegations submitted after last week's disputed presidential election – a sign of the deep challenges facing the U.S. and its allies in shoring up a legitimate Afghan government capable of withstanding the Taliban insurgency, corruption and drug trafficking.

FANTASTIC VIDEO OF THE LIES THAT LED TO THE IRAQ WAR

This video is a composite of various members of the Bush administration and how they lied to get us into the Iraq War. The lies have cost the lives of nearly 4,500 young Americans as well as over 30,000 severely wounded with wounds that will leave them disabled for life. There are also reports that upwards of one million Iraqi citizens have been killed since the United States invaded Iraq in 2003.
