Another dreadful Memorial Day has come and gone. It was the fourth consecutive Memorial Day since the U.S. invaded Iraq, in 2003 -- with no end in sight. So far, about 2,500 U.S. troops have died in vain in Iraq and Afghanistan, and thousands more have been severely wounded. Members of the Rhode Island National Guard have, of course, also died in vain in Iraq.

The Rhode Island National Guard is in Iraq because the United States was attacked on 9/11. The United States was attacked on 9/11 because the entire Muslim world exacted revenge for the United States's giving Israel over $3 billion in military and economic aid annually while Israel persecutes, terrorizes and commits genocide against innocent and helpless Palestinians.

The pro-Israel lobby -- the America-Israel Political Action Committee in particular, along with other very powerful Jewish groups -- has hijacked U.S. Mideastern policy.

Do not let our boys die in vain for Israel's fanatical Zionists!
