Very nice work. Keep it up. Your art, whether the cityscapes were traced or not, was quite fitting for the piece.
As for your complaint, DeadEyedCat, perhaps you're unaware of how recently dropping bombs on innocent civilians was viewed as extremely patriotic, and how even now, continuing to wage an unjustified war is still considered to be so. Do a little research on the Downing Street Memo and other documents concerning the United States' involvement in Iraq... there were never terrorist responsible for 9/11 there until after we invaded, and that was known before the invasion. Nor were there any weapons of mass destruction. Saddam, while not a nice guy (few politicians are), was at least behaving himself.
I don't blame them for waging their war against our troops stationed there. I'd sure as hell blow some people up, too, if they came and camped their army in my backyard. I just pity the poor troops of ours who have been plunked down in a place they shouldn't be and are now being killed because of the stupidity of one man.
