ok im not sure i understand how the "wall of death" is an insult to the soldiers. The memorial is honest. War is ugly. Why glorify something so horrible. The memorial actually has all the fallen soldiers names...as in paying respects to the individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice...But it is disrespectful and dishonest to glorify the war they faught in...Do you want pride for covering thousands of people in napalm...You want a memorial for an idea you have about war. Her memorial is about what happened and how we can face it. See 2 other replies

Soldiers are just Soldiers, they don't set policy, they were betray by politicians and the media. They did their duty and die for it, People in this country adore celebrities, there like a dozen
award shows every year, oscars, grammys, emmys, ect, i hate them all. ill watch the show , but not the awards, idc what they do outside of the show. the soldiers deserve the monument and the celebrity. they deserve a 1000 monuments. They did their duty. I agree with you about looking the other way when Saddam and Milosevic were engaged in genocide. but the soldiers don't make decisions, they fallow orders. See 2 other replies
