    Even Salon Posters Support You!

    Give yourself honor for doing the job you have done. Even though we wish you had not had to go to Iraq, we honor you. We are in awe of you.

    The people who started the war do not know what the war is like. And you, the people who have fought, had no part in starting the war. Peace, now. We are on your side.
