Update on Bush's illegal war/occupation

As of 12:25 pm EDT on August 12, 1,846 Americans have been killed in Iraq since March 19, 2003. 1,709 of them were killed after Bush declared "mission accomplished" on May 1, 2003.

The "official" number of American wounded is 13,877. The estimated number is 15,000 to 42,500.

There are differing reports about the number of Iraqis killed, but that number is certainly in the tens of thousands. If the Lancet report released last October is correct, the number of Iraqi deaths must be way beyond 100,000 by now.

The financial cost according to the U.S. Dept. of Defense was reported in Harper's Magazine in June: "The monthly cost of the U.S. Occupation of Iraq is $4.1 Billion."

And all because of greed and lies.
