As far as killed, missing and wounded at Gettysburg it was estimated at 48,000. Every American life is precious but 149 deaths to invade Iraq is very low.
The total 4439 Americans killed, hundreds of thousand seriously wounded, over 100,000 Iraqi Civilians killed... for a war based on lies.
No Iraq oil... No WMD's... No Iraq Democracy...
Even the 149 killed in the initial phase of the war... If you were one of those 149 you might look at your death as NOT WORTH IT! and NOT VERY LOW!

You're not even close on the wounded count. depending on who you quote, its 30,000-50,000 TOTAL US wounded, I don't differentiate on "serious". Typical lefty hysteria...

You are correct. My typo mistake... I wrote the "hundred thousand" Wounded and again 100,000 civilian deaths. I meant to post 10,000 seriously wounded US Troops.

How about the fact that now more kids have committed suicide than have died in the gunfire. There's a statistic fosr ya!
Yossi At the time, I read that more Vietnam Vets had taken their own life in the 10 years after the Vietnam war, than were killed in the war. I haven't read that about Iraq, but wouldn't be surprised by it.

Actually - Al Gore made more money from "Big Oil" than George HW Bush, George W Bush and Dick Cheney combined. And Gore makes money on the "Green Movement", too. No matter which way it goes Gore is making a tidy profit .. use oil .. he profits ... go green .. he profits.

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
