lest we forget .....

lest we forget .....

On Remembrance Day 2007 – Veterans Day in America – the great and the good bowed their heads at the Cenotaph. Generals, politicians, newsreaders, football managers and stock-market traders wore their poppies. Hypocrisy was a presence. 

No one mentioned Iraq.  

No one uttered the slightest remorse for the fallen of that country.  

No one read the forbidden list. 

No Remembrance, No Remorse For The Fallen Of Iraq
