...“We need to get our troops out of Iraq. The only reason Bush wants to stay there is because his buddies are getting rich and feasting off the blood of our children.” She also wants a complete military withdrawal from all Arab countries to make us safe from terrorism.

Is not ridding the world of Saddam Hussein a noble cause? “We sold him weapons and were once his friend — we made him,” she said.

“I have to wonder for the rest of my life if the gun which took Casey’s life was sold to Saddam by the US or by Britain.” Ms Sheenan has separated from her husband, Patrick, since Casey’s death because he does not agree with the “level of intensity” she has devoted to peace in the past year. She has had to dissuade her younger son, Andy, from joining the Army. “I said there was no way this Government was going to get another of my children.” ...

Cindy Sheehans words:

"We began the killing as soon as we stepped foot on these shores [of America] and the killing has gone on unabated for over 200 years."
"There has always been excuses for wars, but NONE of them have been good or valid."

"This country is not worth dying for.”

“America has been killing people on this continent since it was started."

"The U.S. government is a morally repugnant system.”

"Am I emotional? Yes, my first born was murdered. Am I angry? Yes, he was killed for lies and for a PNAC Neo-Con agenda to benefit Israel."

"My son joined the Army to protect America, not Israel."

"Am I stupid? No, I know full-well that my son, my family, this nation, and this world were betrayed by a George Bush who was influenced by the neo-con PNAC agenda after 9/11."

"My first born was killed violently for a neo-con agenda that only benefits a very chosen few in this world."

“George Bush and his neo-conservatives killed my son.”

"I DEFINITELY think that we should support war resisters in the military. "

"I know several people who are being court-martialed, and they need support--they need monetary support, they need our moral support, and they need to know that we’re with them."

"We need to encourage more people to do this. "

Now you tell me, how is she deserving of pity?

Grief makes people behave predictably in stages (Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance). I hope this woman doesn't stay stuck in the anger phase of grief too long.

Have you written a letter to the editor of your local newspaper telling them to drop the story yet?

I allowed the woman to be possessed by grief. Even allowed possibility the propaganda of the Left had given her a misguided target to focus her grief on.

But that was before the woman started in with her anti-semitism and is proven linked to the extreme fringes of the Michael Moore's, Berg's father and the communist groups.

Right now I'm feeling more sympathy for the neighbor that wants to be relieved of the presence of these anti-American stalkers.

Yep, same here. Exactly what you said!

Just laziness on the protesters/reporters part. Just shows that they don't understand what really went on in Iraq.

Even CNN will tire of this un-telegenic commie harpy. She has had her 15 minutes.

She is a loon, but if she later starts to camp out in DC, she will be putting her own life on the line.

I think DC is still the murder capital of our country with all those civil servants around, right?

“We sold him weapons and were once his friend — we made him..."

If this IS true, where were these U.S. weapons during Desert Storm? All the Iraqi weapons my unit went up against came from Russia, France and England. I guess Cindy and her mob really aren't into facts. They just say what sounds good.

The left would like nothing else better than to get some peace marches going like during the Vietnam war.

She's not quite to the point of soiling herself, so there isn't enough cause.
