Anti-war.com headlines the
MSNBC report that our death toll in Iraq has passed 2500. This does not include a far larger number of Americans crippled for life. It does not include the coalition of the purchased whose leaders sold us cannon fodder. It does not include honest-to-goodness patriotic Iraqis who decided that for all our faults we were on the right side and volunteered to join their police and army.
It also does not include any of the American mercenaries. Francis Scott Key, in writing The Star Spangled Banner, made clear the REAL AMERICAN perspective that mercenaries of their nature pollute the ground where they walk, and only blood sacrifice of the mercenaries can cleanse that earth.
That count does not include 100,000 (see the Lancet for justification of this number) Iraqi civilians caught in the crossfire. Nor does it include some large number of Iraqi freedom fighters who died in action against a foreign Army of occupation that disgracefully was American. Furthermore below fold
that count does not count the hundreds of thousands of widows and orphans whose lives were spoiled by the loss of loved ones due to the lies of Bush, Powell, Rumsfeld, Cheney, and a cast of hundreds.
Nor does that include the count of Americans whose lives will be ruined by subversives in American spy agencies who are listening to your phone calls and reading your emails without warrants, or their seditious attorneys who said that the Constitution was just a dishrag.
