[Peace-discuss] Pentagon Challenge: Ask Iraqis How Many Have Died

[Jenifer Cartwright]

Three YEARS??? This would be embarrassing if it weren't so obscene. The Pentagon has already been conducting polls on a regular basis, and it has MORE than enuff info to show that the country is a mess and that the US has no business being there anymore (not that it ever did) UNLESS it plans to participate in massive clean-up efforts, organize programs to make restitution for the damage the US has done to Iraq and its people, and take some of the 4 MILLION persons displaced because if the US invasion. 
 
How many killed?? Read about what's it's like to live in Iraq these days, and you feel like the ones who were killed were the lucky ones.

The Washington Post reports that the Pentagon plans to poll Iraqis. By asking, "How many members of your household have died since March, 2003?" the Pentagon could construct an estimate of Iraqi deaths since the U.S. invasion.. Congress should require the Pentagon to do so.
