U.S. invasion claims 1300 more victims

U.S. invasion claims 1300 more victims

Words almost fail: the death toll in Iraq in the last week is more than 1300. That is 1300+ Iraqis. 1300+ human beings. 1300+ people with fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, friends, neighbors. 1300+ people experiencing George Bush's "freedom" - the freedom of the grave. No matter who pulled the trigger, or wielded the knife, or lit the fuse, 1300+ more victims of the U.S. invasion. George Bush's invasion. Dick Cheney's invasion. Donald Rumsfeld's invasion. Colin Powell's invasion. Condoleezza Rice's invasion. The Republicans and the Democrats in Congress' invasion. Imperialism's invasion. Imperialism's victims.
