The Invasion of Iraq!   Happy 10th Anniversary!

So far...here's what the numbers are saying ... at least to me, that is!

This IRAQI debacle has cost the American tax payer just over two TRILLION dollars under Dubbya's regime!
  • Over a total of 190,000 people were killed/bombed/nuked/droned/whatever!
  • Of that number...100,000 were Iraqis.
  • another 4,000+ Americans died hunting for "weapons of mass destruction"!
  • another 32,000 Americans were wounded and there are an untold number of American soldiers suffering from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome)

Aside from PTSD...we have no idea of the number of Americans and its' allies that had their young/innocent heads "f*cked up by this invasion!"

And according to other war mongers...aside from (and including) Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield and a few others...this fiasco would eventually be funded by the supposed "cheap flow" of oil from Iran once Dubbya got rid of Saddam!

Postscript:
Just filled up my tank!   $4.39/gallon.   I can't complain.   It was $4.59 this time last year...and under $4.00 in Providence Forge, Virgina   Thanks Dubbya!
