Civilian Casulties
Just Foreign Policy Issues
Over a million {*1,127,552} Iraqis are estimated to have been killed as a result of the U.S.-led invasion and occupation. Learn More and Take Action»
*Estimate, click for explaination.
To
John Hopkins School of Public Health { October 11, 2006 report } puts the count at 650,000, with a range from 400,000 to 900,000.
Exact Count of Civilian Casulties may never be known, as is the case in every conflict, especially an Invasion by another Country. For it is the Innocent Civilians and those Defending their Countries {of which All would be counted if this land were ever invaded} who suffer the most, during and long after!
All the Deaths, Maimings and Destruction are the Blood on All Our Hands, No One can escape the Guilt!

"Never going home"
Some of the troops from the 101st division are on their third tour of Iraq.
Previous tours have lasted more than a year and this one will be more than 15 months.
The words "never going home" have been etched onto the ceiling of this vehicle.
As Of December 6 2007, There Are 82 Pages w/5 'Silent Honor Rolls' Each, Number Of KIA's Varies With Each 'Silent Honor Roll';
Many now have numbers in the teens and twenties
In Honor - In Memory
If they were sent to fight, they are too few. If they were sent to die, they are too many!
Is 'Funding' Really For Troops?
What Happened To Funding and Oversite For Military/Veteran Care In Previous Congresses?
Those who take some sort of relief in the "We are fighting them over there so we won't be fighting them here!", Better Rethink their Future, or rather their Childrens Future!!
The Failed Policies will Haunt Us and the World for Decades!!
