A new study published by The Lancet estimates that 655,000 Iraqis, the vast majority of them innocent civilians, have been killed as a result of the bombing and occupation of Iraq. Was this a human price worth paying for the supposed liberation of an oppressed people? How does freedom in Iraq under Bush’s mandate compare with Saddam Hussein’s regime?
“We’ve always said it could be days, weeks, or months and we don’t know. And I don’t think you need a timetable. What you really need to know is it’s going to end and it’s going to end with the Iraqi people liberated.”

i dont think that the “liberation” of iraq is ever going to happen. As it is, I think that the war in iraq is just an excuse to invade a country. Lots of people have heard of the conspiracy theory behind the 9/11 attacks on the world trade centre, and some of them are credable.
The war in iraq is a waste of time a life, 655,000 iraqis killed! thats just stupid!
