Tragic

Although I do not know him, I have read and admired Professor Bacevich's writings, and I am saddened to hear of his son's loss in Iraq.

Of course, every single soldier and civilian killed is a tragedy, but this story has such a bitter irony about it, it brings home to me the utter stupidity and terrible waste of Bush's war.

I am sincerely sorry for the Bacevich family's loss, and for all of our losses.
