AND IN THE LAND THAT FLOATS UPON OIL, U.S. Forces and their subordinates are murdering the children of Iraq at the fastest rate possible. Though it's not quite fast or deadly enough to save them from the looming WMDs that endanger them all—the ones that required our military to... $MTEntryExcerpt$>

Categorized under Guerra , Headlines , Iraq the Casbah | Tags: Iraq
OKAY, maybe it's five hundred thousand. Maybe only two hundred thousand Iraqis are dead. Whatever, I don't personally feel 4,000 Americans' lives—ones who chose to make the military their business—are somehow more worth my sorrow than the same, or ten or one hundred times that many Iraqi lives. And... $MTEntryExcerpt$>
