"The United States has been at war in Iraq for 38 months. As of this writing, more than 2,400 U.S. soldiers and 100,000 Iraqis, mostly civilians, have died. More than 18,000 U.S. soldiers have been permanently injured. The financial cost for the war is nearing 300 billion dollars, and could ultimately exceed 2 trillion dollars.

I stumbled onto this by accident looking for main stream news coverage of Dick Cheney at norad on 9/11. This is an excellent factual collage to the buildup of iraq. Don't let the ministry of truth ("1984 Orwell") get ahold of this information!
