Perspective
Many media outlets are touting the 1,000 mark in dead soldiers as the reason to pull out of Iraq. I haven't seen them post the total number of terrorism victims in New York, Washington, Pennsylvania, Spain, Russia, etc.
Would they have "celebrated" (that word may be a little harsh, but I can't think of another one) the number of dead during the first two World Wars?
(That reminds me of something. I find it interesting that many people protested and severely criticized another President for bringing the nation to war. I don't mean LBJ or JFK. Or Wilson or FDR. Lincoln. They--people in the North, by the way--thought the Civil War was a mistake. Interesting.)
The people directly affected by the 1,000 lives lost--the soldiers currently in Iraq--are not using that as an excuse to pull out of Iraq. Rather, they are using it to strengthen their resolve to finish the job.
