Poster has a thin white border overall. Background of poster is a photograph of a row of military boots with rifles lodged upright, barrel first in them. Hanging from each rifle is a set of military identification tags and on the butt of each rifle is a military helmet. An American flag can be seen behind the row of boots. The poster reads from top to bottom: "Iraq Is A Graveyard For America / Before we ask who's being wounded and killed1 and who's profitinfg2 in the war on terrorism, our first / question should be - does the U.S. government have any strategy for how to win this war in the first place? / Do they really think it's possible to hunt down every single terrorist, occupy every last rogue nation, / suppress every uprising without provoking even more resentment and resistance? / Or is that part of the strategy, to create more and more terrorists in the name of liberation, / to keep those of us who will die in future attacks running blindly for protection / to the leaders who put us in harm's way? / 1 Over 3,000 U.S. soldiers since the war began - none of them from the Bush, / Cheney, Kerry, or Rumsfeld families; and over 20,000 Iraqis, many of them civilians / 2 $4,000,000,000 to Halliburton, $6,000 each to the families of the U.S. dead / www.crimethink.com | www.infoshop.org".
