Alex,

It is not a bogus statement at all. It was meant to put a perspective on the number. People all over the world die everyday, a lot because we didn't/don't act to prevent it and others as a direct or indirect consequence of the actions we have chosen.

Trust me dude I was only a couple of months away from getting a number for the opportunity to visit a little place in southeast asia several years ago. So I don't view these military deaths lightly at all. Fortunately Nixon ended all that before I had to. In Saddam's case I think the greater good has been served by us being there.

>That's bogus. Pulleaze.
