I take it the 10,000 body count referred to there
includes those killed by terrorists.

That article is essentially comparing the US
to terrorists.

Is that your belief?

My belief is that there are serious consequences to our actions. A preemptive war started on faulty intel is responsible for the deaths of over 10k Iraqis. In addition, over 3k Afghanistan have lost their lives. In both cases, many of the dead were civilians. And then we have the loss of over 500 FINE Americans and the expenditure of $300 billion to date.

I do not believe the losses are worth the results nor that the US had good justification for going into Iraq.

What do you believe? Do you even think about the losses of human life caused by this war, and if so, do you care? What about the money? What is it that makes you people reconsider the consequences of your actions?
