Iraq Casualty Count as of 9:00 PM EST, Friday, 02/17/2005

30 Americans have died this month. 1330 have perished since the “Mission Accomplished” sign was hung on the aircraft carrier; 1470 since Bush’s War began. 1,642 men and women from the participating nations have died since the onset of Bush’s war.

10,967 American men and women have been wounded, 97 between 2/09 and 2/15. These data come from Iraq Coalition Casualties who can use our financial support.

Iraqis continue to be blown to bits and otherwise slaughtered by the score, with tens of thousands of men, women, and children killed and the infrastructure virtually destroyed.

Sometime this week Dear Leader's war will have succeeded in wounding 11,000 Americans - and for what? The sanctions were working. We didn't need to do this.
