Iraq Casualty Count as of 9:00 PM EDT, Friday, 04/22/2005

Two more American deaths - 33 Americans died this month. 1427 Americans have perished since the “Mission Accomplished” sign was hung on the aircraft carrier; 1567 since Bush’s War began. 1744 men and women from the participating nations have died since the onset of Bush’s war.

Dubya has finally managed to hit a milestone in the wounded and maimed department - he broke 12,000. What is really sad is that the body armor and helmets that our men and women are wearing protect them from a lot of “stuff” that would have killed them in Vietnam. Sadly, not from brain injuries or lost limbs, or missing eyes. Oh well. Nonetheless, 12,022 American men and women have been wounded, 134 between 4/13 and 4/19.

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.
