Who Pays the Price?

The price for the war in Iraq continues to mount: not just the financial cost, but the human cost. We know of the dead and wounded, we learn of those with emotional and spiritual trauma. Now it has become abundantly clear that the marriages and relationships of our military serving in Iraq are increasingly becoming casualties of the war. The Los Angeles Timestells the very sad story of the high incidence of divorce and the shattering of loves among those who have served.

Very few Americans are bearing the cost of this war, many are profiting and profiteering from it, but it is the soldiers and their loved ones who bear this enormous burden. Let's wake up to what's really going on.
