My, so lightly you dismiss 2000 of your countrymen dead, 2000 familes damaged by this vainglorious advenure.

Yep, 2000 dead professional well armed, well trained soldiers. Totally acceptable, perhpas, given that we invaded Iraq. 12000 more injured. Thats OK, then.

But the Iraqis? Many thousands of civilians dead (100,000?), many more thousands injured, infrastructure trashed, social damage incalculable.

Haliburton up 100pts.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
