Death Toll

[vinnieponte]

Most of you are always pointing out what a bad person Kerry would be as president, etc, etc, so I would like to show you what Bush has achieved as president, god bless our troops!

There have been 1,377 coalition deaths, 1,231 Americans, 74 Britons, seven Bulgarians, one Dane, two Dutch, two Estonians, one Hungarian, 19 Italians, one Latvian, 13 Poles, one Salvadoran, three Slovaks, 11 Spaniards, two Thai and nine Ukrainians in the war in Iraq as of November 24, 2004Text

You forgot the number of freed Iraqi's in your numbers. Give our soldiers credit for that at least. You seem to only want to focus on the number that got killed.

That is sad.

You probably should also add in the iraqi's who have given their lives for their freedom. As long as you are counting up the brave men and women who are willing to give their lives for yours, my and their freedom.

I also guess there is no point mentioning that kerry supported and voted for the war, but as we all know his vote changed with the wind, so you can't figure out what he really would/would not have done.

Maybe we should post the numbers of soldiers that didn't die.

[Usually Lurkin]

and the number of murderers and terrorists that have been captured and killed (along with the number of innocent people they killed)?

god bless our troops!

Saying something like this out of sarcasm isn't showing much respect for those who are out there risking their lives for you, Vinnie.

Just wanted to see where we were a month from my last post. We must not forget that our soilders our dying for Bush's hunt for wmd's that were never found, whatever happened to bin laden????. There has been 94 innocent deaths since my last post and 90 of them were americans...........................

There have been 1,471 coalition troop deaths, 1,321 Americans, 75 Britons, seven Bulgarians, one Dane, two Dutch, two Estonians, one Hungarian, 19 Italians, one Latvian, 16 Poles, one Salvadoran, three Slovaks, 11 Spaniards, two Thai and nine Ukrainians in the war in Iraq as of December 24, 2004. At least 9,981 U.S. troops have been wounded in action, according to the Pentagon. The Pentagon does not report the number of non-hostile wounded.

So Kerry voted for the War in Iraq, but wished that no soilders would die if there was a war.

Happy, you made 1471 political points using dead heroes.

Here is the monthly update on the death situation in Iraq. With all the Iran rumors, these numbers could easily double, triple, etc. Lets pray for the fallin and pray for a miracle, that being Dubya end this!! Since last month 61 innocent soilders have died and 51 of them being american. It's a shame that all of this has come because of false information on weapons that were never there. So what is this war really about?

[Usually Lurkin]

only 1500 coalition deaths? what about the 3000 unarmed civilians that were involuntarily "drafted" into the war by a bunch of terrorists a few years ago?

Oh, here we go again..another one who thinks Iraq and 9/11 are related..its no wonder W got re-elected..UNREAL

[vinnieponte]

Exactly, We've had a unjust war, deaths, lies, an election, yet when is the last time you heard the Bush administration say anything about the "real" reason why all of this started: Bin Laden? I don't know about you, but somewhere after 9/11, we lost focus of whom the real axis of evil is. From morning to night I had the Rumsfields, the Bush's, the Powells, speak endless about Bin laden this and that. Yet we go to war on false pretenses and yet we continue to destroy life and we let the man who started this all sit back and laugh. If we want to accomplish ANYTHING worth fighting for, Bin laden is it, and we don't even turn his way, funny yet sad.

[Usually Lurkin]

Bin Laden does not exist in a vacuum. Tyrannists that enact cruel and mass terror against their own people contribute to a world culture that is more accepting of terrorists that enact cruel and mass terror against others.

Think of it this way: Hitler was not involved in the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
