Slaughter of the Innocents: Something is Rotten in Iraq and the Pentagon
Slaughter of the Innocents
Something is Rotten in Iraq and the Pentagon

By Dave Lindorff 10/15/07 "Counterpunch"

The truth: we are conducting a slaughter of innocents in Iraq that is as bad as anything the Nazis did in their Eastern Front campaign.

2. "The first casualty of war is the truth"
One must presume that the military either fudges the numbers or outright lies about the killing of innocents.
What's the difference between a suicide bomber killing innocent people and a bomb dropped from 30,000 feet killing innocent people?

4. The Difference Is
A suicide bomber is a terrorist anhd targets innocent people on purpose, and a bomb dropped from 30,000 feet causes collateral damage!;)

In my view a terrorist targeting civilians and a an aircraft dropping bombs on a city, are both guilty of terror!!!!!

Paying The Price: Killing The Children Of Iraq
A documentary film by John Pilger


Sanctions enforced by the UN on Iraq since the Gulf War have killed more people than the two atomic bombs dropped on Japan in 1945, including over half a million children - many of whom weren't even born when the Gulf War began.
