Estimated Iraqi death due to U.S. invasion nears one million

Last year Johns Hopkins researchers produced a study estimating that 650,000 Iraqis had died as of July, 2006 as a result of the U.S. invasion. The organization Just Foreign Policy has now created a new estimate, based on the original study, of deaths to the present day. The number they came up with is just under one million.

Stop the carnage. Lend your voice with mine, call your Reps and Senators. This has to stop. These deaths are over a lie. They don't care how much blood drenches their oil. All they care about is money and power. War is money, and money trumps peace. Money trumps human lives. This is pure evil.

Almost one million people have lost their lives...how many more will die for a lie?

3. Silence from the "Liberal media"
and their role played in this. What did they have to gain by the deaths of nearly one million people? Follow the money?

5. Yes, there is Kucinich
The man who actually works within the constitution for the good of this country. He should be our nominee for President. He actually has the cajones to do what is needed, what is right, and just. And that folks, is exactly the type of person we need in the white house.

6. Yes, at least someone felt the Iraq casualties figure should
be explored instead of remaining silent :(
