February 27, 2004 Iraq Occupation Update
Okay, I promised Eyal that I’d do a politically orientated anti-American post so that he could feed off it and post some interesting facts and figures for me to rearrange my thinking on the whole Iraqi occupation. Basically, I have nothing to offer him at the moment, since I’m clean out of any commentary that would seem intelligent beyond the usual Empire bashing jingoism.
But here goes anyway.
Here’s some fun statistics for you (apparently a little out of date though) – Iraqometer. Presented in a fun, colourful way. Remember kids, don’t wage war without proper adult supervision or Donald Rumsfeld.
And this one is from a new blog I’ve discovered (well, it’s not new, but my discovery is). This one’s from Flying Yangban. Now if all coalition forces are this hot, then sign me up for liberation!
On a more a serious note, if you want to keep up with the actual casualties happening in Iraq (up to date I believe), then this site provides all the info.

Hey, haven’t really had a chance to check all those links. But in the meantime I’ve got something for you:

War crimes, eh?
Thought it might be a bit too much to indict him on war crimes but what the hell. That’s one way to get him out of power.
