New Iraq War Website

Say hello to KnowWar.com

Know War is a not for profit project that aims to help us understand the reality and the impact of war. The first part of this project is seen above, a photograph of what the American death toll looks like.

In addition to the photographic memorial, Know War's mission is to generate an archive of personal testimony and reaction to war. Many of us feel fundamentally disconnected from the reality of combat. Know War aims to create a forum through which to share our experience. We seek firsthand accounts, essays, combat journals, letters home, interviews, photographs, and any of your thoughts regarding war. Please submit emails or Word documents, PDFs, JPEGs or Quicktime attachments and specify whether you request anonymity. All submissions will be posted on Know War.

    OK, I went to the site and all they had was the picture of people laying on the ground, and an address to send donations....Did I miss a link somewhere? IMO, you can't understand war and combat until you've been there. Photos and stories, while they will tug at emotions, and perhaps provide some insight, they will not take the place of true experience.

    Patrick, I think they intend to add to it, they are just beginning.

    News Flash: There is no Iraq war. The so-called "war" ended soon after the US invaded Iraq. What we have is an occupation and its needless death and destruction. The day we stop perpetuating a false war, will be the day we bury the "cut-and-run" smear, because you can't "cut-and-run" from an occupation; the only choice is to end it.
