Lest we forget... Iraq ... Afghanistan
Events in Lebanon are terrible. Hundreds of innocent civilians are dead. The daily media images are horrific. It's time for the US government to use its muscle to enforce a ceasefire.
Agreed. But in another corner of the Middle East the US is using its muscle – with these results:
January: 1,778 civilian deaths
February: 2,165 civilian deaths
March: 2,378 civilian deaths
April: 2,284 civilian deaths
May: 2,669 civilian deaths
June: 3,149 civilian deaths
Thousands of civilian deaths every month – 14,423 in the first half of the year – according to United Nations figures.
[If Lebanon is bad, Iraq is a hundred times worse. Literally.]
