Counting the Dead

These questions are just as valid as they were when I first raised them.
Now, I don’t say everything I wrote was a fact. For example, I was never able to verify that there was a disproportionate amount of “green card” recruits killed in Iraq, or that their deaths weren’t counted in the official reports. But that doesn’t mean there’s no truth to it - only that it can’t be verified from the available official reports.
What I said was, Here are some questions. These are subjects that serious journalists should pursue.
Legitimate questions about the casualty counts remain, raised by mainstream news organizations. We still don’t have answers.
And now that some time has passed, it doesn’t sound so farfetched now, does it? This BushCo gang has already shown that when it comes to protecting their own interests, there are no boundaries.
No boundaries is a very precise summation. Please see this little note for another example.
