It seems such a short while, one month ago today exactly, when I posted that 1100 US troops had died in Iraq, and at the time it seemed such a short while before that 1000 troops had died. Now we have reached 1200. Such a tragic waste of lives to justify a mistaken war.
For the men, women and children of Iraq who have died, no one seems to have judged it important enough to count them. That is an even greater tragedy.
