You did not die for your country! You died for Big Oil & Big Business.
What a waste of young lives. I hope & pray that those who sent you out to do their Dirty Work will die roaring & suffer Eternal Damnation, UNLESS they repent & acknowledge their terrible deeds to the youth of America.
Though I disagree with you on whether these young men died for their country (even in a badly run war--happened for much of the Civil War too), I'm glad to have a visitor who can pronounce Taoiseach.
