1000 US troops dead in Iraq by 911; do the numbers

[LynnTheDem]

993 US dead, Iraq as of today

133 US dead, Afghanistan, as of today

Total 1126 US dead for bush's wars, to date.

Apx 2500 US dead September 11, 2001.

Almost half the number of US killed on bush's "watch" on 911 are dead from bush's "war on terra".

How many 911s has the US perpetrated on Iraq?

US population; apx 282 million...US dead in 911, apx 2500 total;

Iraq population; apx 24 million...Iraqi dead in bush's invasion, apx 40,000 to date.

Iraq is apx 9% of US population. 9% of 2500 killed on 911 = equivalent of 225 Iraqis killed.

40,000/225 = 177.78

178 September 11, 2001 attacks committed by the USA on Iraq over the past 18 months.

1. Yeah. but God is on our side -

and he speaks through Bush. Therefore, God is smiting those heathens. Compassionate conservatism.

2. If the casualty rate of two per day holds

we'll have over 1000 on friday. Which the public will pay zero attention to, and we'll be screaming about 1500, and up, and nobody will give a fat rats ass.
