Bruce Bahmani told me about a memorial for U.S. troops killed in Iraq. It's on a stretch of private property directly opposite Lafayette metro station near San Francisco. We finally went to see it on Saturday. Created by anti-war activist Jeff Heaton, the mock military cemetery focuses on the human cost of the conflict to Americans. Jewish soldiers are marked by Star of David and for Muslims the crescent moon.

JJ: The US troops give their lives so that people in America

by Ponderer (not verified) on

can live safe and free. That includes people like yourself who not only supported a terrorist regime (e.g., The Islamic Republic of Mullahs) but also became its propaganda voice until 1989 in Iran and since then in America! How do you like that apple?
