Does anyone really know the total of American deaths since this war in Iraq began with George Bush the first?
476192
In the 1991 war, 382 died and 467 were wounded in some fashion.\n\nIn the 2003 war and the following occupation, 2,325 died and 17,467 were wounded in some fashion.\n\n\nThat's not bad at all.

No one has been held responsible, and in fact Bush stole another election AFTER this unjust war was started.  We need to educate people and demand a revolution.  With something like 2400 US casualties now, the "collateral" Iraqui dead(women, men and children who are not insurgents, were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. . .this number is, as George Bush put it, "around 30, 000 more or less."\n\nIf you are not outraged, then you are NOT paying attention!!!"

It is a term to describe George Bush's war on Iraq. He has created a culture of death. 2500 of ours and 10's of thousands of Iraqi have died in this stupid war.

Saddam will be hanged for murdering 148 people but what about George W. Bush?The death toll of American soldiers in Iraq has reached almost 3000.For what purpose?To free a country that only a dictator could have controlled,look now,Saddam is off power and the people are slaughtering eachother because of ethnic believe.

This might sound strange, but it depends upon how you define "died".  Take a look at the chart at the source.  It shows battle deaths, other deaths, and non-mortal woundings.  \n\nTo directly respond to your question, there have been 651,008 battle deaths through Desert Storm.  There have been another 2,465 in the latest Iraq conflict, 295 in Afghanistan and approximately 18 in Somalia for a grand total of 653,786...and unfortunately growing.

None...that's absurd to say he has. To my knowledge President Bush has never personally killed anyone.\n\nRemember, Congress has to approve everything he does (at least majority vote). So why just point the finger at Bush? Seriously, it's getting aggravating. All the questions on here always have the same theme.

Bush is to blame. I'm sure when these people joined the military they did it with the assumption that they would not be sent into harms way unless it was NECESSARY to defend the country. This war was not necassary. (What weapons of mass destruction?) The blood of every dead or injured American soldier and every innocent Iraqi civilian is on his hands.

I'd estimate somewhere in the 40,000-50,000 range of Iraqi casualties. Of course, it could be much more, no one knows.

George W. Bush is a war criminal, a mass murderer and a barefaced liar. He can't be charged since he is still in power. "Diplomatic Immunity".  Because he lied, our troops died. Because of his arrogance and his favoritism between Shiites and Sunnis, a civil war occurred in Iraq and death among innocent people multiplied. So who is responsible for all this fiasco and death in Iraq? Bush and his Evil Team are responsible.

Okay I can't speak for Bush and I don't agree with the war but the reason people are dying in iraq is because the american soilders just want to get home alive so they shoot first and ask question second..Its not just iraqis dying over there you know.\nI'm pretty sure most american value lives over oil but then again we don't really control our country big buisness do..

Its A Burning Question :\n\nThe US Congress passed a resolution in October 2002 that authorized military force to enforce UN sanctions and "defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq." \n\nOn 20 March 2003, the United States launched a war against Iraq, with President Bush saying the attack was to "disarm Iraq and to free its people"; 250,000 United States troops were supported by approximately 45,000 British, 2,000 Australian and 200 Polish combat forces. \n\nThe US State Department released this list of the "coalition of the willing": Afghanistan, Albania, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Colombia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, the Philippines, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom, Uzbekistan and the United States. \n\nOn 1 May, aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln and under a "Mission Accomplished" banner, the President said, "Major combat operations have ended; in the battle of iraq, the US and her allies have prevailed... We've removed an ally of al Qaida." Fighting continues; there is no scheduled departure of US troops. \n\nThe Iraqi Interim Government (IIG) assumed authority for governing Iraq on June 28, 2004. Elections are scheduled for January 2005. \n\nWhereas the first Gulf War was measured in days, this second has been measured in months. Fewer than 200 US military were killed in the first war; more than 1,000 have been killed in the second. Congress has appropriated $151 billion for the war effort.

Families speak about it:  http://www.mfso.org/article.php?id=533\n\nHow many people die in war:http://www.faqs.org/qa/qa-14310.html\nChildren in war: http://www.wcc-coe.org/wcc/what/jpc/echoes/echoes-20-03.html\n\nThere has been no official figure for the number of Iraqis killed since the conflict began 18 months ago, but some non-government estimates have ranged from 10,000 to 30,000.\n\nThe researchers surveyed nearly 1000 Iraqi households in September, asking how many people lived in the home and how many births and deaths there had been since January 2002.\n\nThey then compared the death rate among those households during the 15 months before the invasion with the 18 months after it, getting death certificates where they could.\n\nThe experts from the United States and Iraq said most of those who died were women and children and air strikes from coalition forces accounted for most of the violent deaths.\n\nThe study was designed and conducted by researchers at Johns Hopkins University, Columbia University and the Al-Mustansiriya University in Baghdad.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttp://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/meast/10/29/iraq.deaths/

I have seen sights reporting as high as half a million civilians.  There is so much chaos there that no one can accurately give a figure.  Based on the answers here it seems Iraqi life holds no value and analogy is used that if Sadam was killing why not us! But everyone has forgotten that Bush attacked Iraq to make life better for the Iraqis and get rid of Sadam and he is still alive while so many are dead and dying!

I think the official count stands at just around 22,000 injured, maimed, or permanently disabled (in addition to more than 2,800 dead). And George W. Bush has the audacity to CUT military veterans' benefits while he so hypocritically "honors" their service to the country! Notice he didn't cut any of Rumsfeld's perks or benefits.                                                       -RKO-
