31 Days in Iraq

By ADRIANA LINS de ALBUQUERQUE and ALICIA CHENG
In January more than 800 people — soldiers, security officers and civilians — were killed as a result of the insurgency in Iraq. While the daily toll is noted in the newspapers and on TV, it is hard for many Americans to see these isolated reports in a broader context. The map, based on data from the American, British and Iraqi governments and news reports, shows the dates, locations and circumstances of deaths for the first month of the year.

Given the fog of war, the information may be incomplete. Nonetheless, it is our effort to visually depict the continuing human cost of the Iraq war.

And now the map that shows exactly how wide spread the war is in Iraq....unlike what we've been told by the American 'president'. The cost of the war.......over $400 billion. The federal deficit is climbing like its a tech stock from the 1990s.

Keep fiddling, Nero, as DC burns.
