This is a heartbreaking toll on American families. These were people's
sons and daughters, husbands and wives, moms and dads. Our hearts go out
to all of their families. Our hearts also go out to the families of the
many thousands of Afghan civilians who have died.
We want the President and the American people to know that we abhor the
awful cost of this war and want our troops to come home. Please post the
message above on the White House Facebook page.
