who is counting?

I take issue with the link on MSNBC's homepage that reads: "The Human Cost of the war in Iraq" as just below those big words it lists who counts in this cost: Those lives lost of "coalition forces." This is horrid arrogance to think that only certain people's lives count or are considered worth counting.

For a far more accurate and detailed study on the cost of Bush and Company's war...please check out the study "Paying the Price: The Mounting Costs of the Iraq War" from http://www.fpif.org

The study authors Phyllis Bennis and the "IPS Iraq Task Force" do an excellent analysis of ALL of the costs including the loss of civilian workforce to feed the military machine.

peace!
