How much is Iraq worth to America? |
|
We have already sacrificed over 1700 lives. Thousands of others have lost limbs or have been severely injured. Two more years, when the death toll hits 5000, will it be worth it then? Maybe the Iraqis will have something George Bush and Dick Cheney call "freedom"? Will that be sufficient for you? You will have to decide sooner or later. What say you?

Iraq is worth less than nothing. It is a liability in Tax Money and the blood of our Children!
BUT, to the upper 1%, the Corporate Owners and Investor Class, Iraq is worth $Trillions!

"Campaign to give army deserters refuge persists
NDP MP Bill Siksay is lending his support to a campaign aimed at allowing a growing number of American military deserters to find refuge in Canada.
According to the British Columbia MP, the issue resonates with a lot of Canadians. For example, Siksay told CTV's Canada AM early Wednesday, Canadians are widely opposed to the prison abuse reported at the Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay prisons.
"They're (also) outraged at the failure to produce any weapons of mass destruction, since that was one of the main reasons for going into this war," he added.
According to the Pentagon, less than 1 per cent of the army has deserted from the Iraq war. Of those 6,000 soldiers, 150 are believed to be seeking refugee status in Canada."More at.. http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/1119448188359_114857388/?hub=Canada
