Originally Posted By DyGDisney I want to add a very serious note to this discussion. I have been opposed to this war from the beginning, so don't know exactly why we are there, other than some high-up muckity-mucks thought Hussein was helping Bin Laden with the terrorist attack. So around 3000 innocent American people died in those terrorist attacks. But since the war has begun, over 4000 soldiers have died in Iraq. Even more disturbing are the statistics on civilian casualties in Iraq which range from over 100,000 to over 1,000,000 due to the war. Yes, some have come at the hand of their own people, but many have been due to the US and British troops. What would we call this if troops from another country declared war on us and killed that many of our people? Not only does Bush suck, and not only is he the worst president in history, but he is also responsible for the murders of tens of thousands of innocent people.
