Want to know the number of dead and wounded in Iraq?

the numbers really amazed me. You won't see this in any American news paper.

Ray Taliaferro on KGO had a member of MEDACT on his show last night.
The numbers of the dead and injured on both sides is astounding.
The report came out before Christmas 2003, so the numbers are old compared to the 537 dead American troops today.

Remember, we invaded this country based on lies about WMD and where Saddam had them hidden, ready to hand over to terrorists. 9/11 etc.

Who was the evildoer?

1. This was done in your name with your money.
We are all going to burn in hell.

Ignorance (willful or otherwise) is no excuse.

from the article entitled "Executive Summary"

---edit-----
Between 21,700 and 55,000 people died between March 20 and October 20, 2003 (the date on which this report went to press), while the health and environmental consequences of the conflict will be felt for many years to come.

5. When this first came out
I posted it multiple times but there were never any replies (not one). Seems you've had better luck already. This is not some "fringe" report. At least I thought it was important. Thanks for posting.

7. I Remember Hearing A NPR...
Talk Of The Nation Segment on this report. I was driving home from somewhere so I got to listen to the whole thing. I thought it would be big news at the time, but I never heard any other reference to it after that program.

6. no wonder I had that awful sick feeling in my stomach
as our country rushed to war.

no wonder I felt so angry as bombs, bought with my money, were used to kill innocent people.

No wonder I wanted to leave my own country.
