100,000 Iraqi Civilian Deaths!

There's an eye opening study by Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health that comes to the conclusion that the war in Iraq has likely caused the death of 100,000 or more Iraqi civilians. David Corn has an article about it and a link to the study itself. Check it out here.

Since there were no WMD's found in Iraq, Bush has still justified the war by saying that Hussein was a brutal dictator and gassed his own people. If he did, worse case I've seen is that he may have killed 5,000 Kurds.

That's really depressing.

100,000 deaths justified by 5,000 deaths.

No wonder the Arab world is taking up arms against us.

I just realized that for the first time, I can no longer say "I'm proud to be an American." I'm ashamed. Very ashamed.
