Weekly Death Toll

Last week the number of Iraqi civilians who had died since, and because of, the U.S. invasion was at 1,222,013.

Now the toll is at 1,225,898.

That means 3,885 Iraqi civilians lost their lives in the last week.

The photo at right is of Don Zirkel--the 80-year-old man who was arrested last spring during an antiwar rally at a local mall, for wearing the t-shirt you see here. Apparently, mall officials didn't want their shoppers to become preoccupied with icky thoughts of important things. I'm with Don:

ENOUGH already!
