Iraq and Afghan War Inquiries

We know the costs in blood, never to totally in civilians, but what of the costs in treasury still not paid! How much to buy the coalition of the willing, how much to buy the CIA rendition and secret prisons globalizing torture, how much for the decades to come as to the results of both wars, more. Neither has been paid for, rubber stamping and rapid deficit rises started Before 9/11 and nothing as to the peoples responsibility, the VA, as to just one of the needs in those results from!

In 2003 some 72% of Americans fully supported the Abandoning of the Missions and those Sent to Accomplish so extremely Quickly after 9/11!!

At least some 95%, if not more as less then 1% serve them, not only still support the, just below, total lack of Sacrifice, they ran from any and all Accountability and left everything still on the table to be continually used if the political/military want was still in play in future executive/legislative wants!! DeJa-Vu: “With no shared sacrifices being asked of civilians after Sept. 11", Decades and War From, All Over Again!!

Paul Hardcastle's "19"

Paul Hardcastle has updated his original song "19" made twenty five years ago, just released a few days back, I'll let him explain

19/04/10 The Story of 19

25 Years ago, I recorded the song '19'. The idea came about whilst watching a documentary which highlighted the plight of young men and women who fought in Vietnam. “In World War 2 the average age of the combat soldier was 26, in Vietnam he was 19.” These words really made me stop and think.

When I first approached Chrysalis Records with the Demo of '19' most people there didn't believe it would get any attention as there would be no interest from the media, and I quote “the public don’t want to hear a song about war.”

Two people thought otherwise,

-->The rest can be found here<-- along with the updated song and video. But I'll bring the video to you now.

Along with the original put into YouTube video form.

About a month ago Paul did an interview with the BBC on the coming remix of "19" twenty fives years later and relating to Afghanistan.
