I don't agree, I think we (certainly you) are lamenting now about
the loss of Iraqi lives, we get media on their loss and commentaries to
how tragic it is everyday, especially from the 'let's get out of Iraq
soon crowd'.
Also, I'm not sure we value American lives that 'greatly' either,
US 2005 traffic death toll is 43,200, that is 831 per week. What
happened at Virginia Tech pales into insignificance or even Iraqi deaths
when compared to that number.
IMO, the carton mocks their death (doesn't matter whether it is
American or Iraqi) to make a political point.
