Casuaties in Iraq: Bush's Murderous Lgacy

Journalist/activist Jim Hightower (once upon a time, the Texas Commissioner of Agriculture) estimates that in the Iraq war, in addition to the more than 4037 US troops and 1200 American private-firm employees (Blackwater, Halliburton, etc.) killed, a shocking 1,033,239 Iraqi war deaths have occurred since 2003. One in every five Iraqis had lost at least one householder to the war.

Why aren’t we reading this in the mainstream media? This is Darfur-scale genocide! Bush has trashed Iraq to the point where any Iraqis are actually longing for the days of Saddam the thug. We are killing their country along with our own economy.

Congress needs to keep refusing to fund this barbaric and unprovoked attack–and Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Gates, Rice et al ought to face impeachment at home and war crimes charges in an international court, much as happened with Slobodan Milosevic. Enough is enough!
