How Many More?

How Many More?
Richard Kuper

On May 1, 2003, when President Bush declared "Mission Accomplished," 140 brave US Citizens had given their lives in the invasion of Iraq.

Three years later, the mission is clearly not accomplished, and now more that 2,400 brave US Citizens have given their lives in the invasion of Iraq.

On June 28, 2005, George W. Bush said: "The Sacrifice in Iraq has been worth it."

Has it really?

How many more must die because of this mistake?

Saddam Hussein did not attack the US on 9/11/01. Osama bin Laden was behind that attack.

It has been 1,688 days (more than 4 1/2 years) since George W. Bush said he would catch Osama bin Laden "Dead or Alive!"

When will the war on terrorism actually begin?
