A Graph Here, a Graph There
I'm not quite sure what to make of these graphs charting American vs. terrorist casualties in Iraq, but they do seem to pose problems for the people reading from the "it's a disaster, always has been always will be" script. Not that problems have ever stopped them before.
Well, this does seem interesting. Questions I can hear from the liberal side:
1 - Who are you classifying as a terrorist? Those are freedom fighters. Hell, they're probably counting innocent women and children there.
2 - Didn't Ho Chi Minh say the same thing? Something about a 10:1 ratio?
Then comes the war for profits so Cheney can make more money, subjugation of the Iraqi peoples, etc.
