Iraq death update

Since Bush began his war of occupation on March 19, 2003, 1,758 US troops have been killed. Since Bush's infamous fly-in declaration of "Mission Accomplished" (staged to the last detail by Karl Rove and company) on May 1, 2003, 1,621 US troops have been killed. The official number of US wounded is now 15,000, but the real number is estimated to be over 38,000.

The number of dead Iraqis has to have gone by now well beyond the 100,000 counted by The Lancet.

In the meantime, Bush's poll numbers continue to slide. Could it be that the majority is finally seeing what is really behind the mask that Karl made for George?
