U.S. death toll in Iraq hits 4,000.

Four U.S. soldiers were killed in Baghdad today, putting the U.S. death toll at 4,000 since the invasion in 2003, reports MSNBC.

Update The Huffington Post has assembled a photo mosaic "in remembrance of the 4,000 brave men and women who sacrificed everything for us."

    Such is the lasting legacy of George W Bush: Needless war, and needless deaths.

    Sure to make any Republican proud.


  2. blue state bob says:

    A sad, horrific mark, but no sadder or more horrific than the poor soldier who will be 4,001, 4,002, 4,003, 4,004……..5,000, etc.

    Will Frank M or Gi_Gi have the balls to come here and tell us how this is something that is not a big deal or that it actually is in some twisted way in their sad, twisted minds a good thing?

    May all the families with dead 20 year olds that they raised carefully, honestly, to be GOOD AMERICAN SONS someday see justice…


  6. MCMetal says:

    What’s 4,000 US military deaths in return for oil and war profits ?


  7. spencers mom says:

    This news breaks my heart. Each of these 4,000 people died trying to do his/her job, but each and everyone of them gave their lives for a cause that never should have been pursued.

    I am in no way demeaning their ultimate sacrifice, but believe that these lost lives were pawns in a chess game while Bush thought he was playing checkers.

    PEACE


  8. tanglewood says:

    Happy Easter friends–I hope everyone had a nice day today. Actually, the death toll is really 4,005 — put in http://www.us deaths in iraq today. and there is a couple of places where they are charting the deaths and keeping a daily tally.

    This war is sooo wrong and immoral it makes me scream. How Chimpy and his corrupt friends look in the mirror to shave is beyond me.

    Anyone recall Denis Miller’s stand-up act a few years ago , where he claimed Kerry was a chess player and Chimpy a checkers player ?

    And how Chimpy was “the man” at that moment , to take down these “terrorists” ; guess even someone with an expansive vocabulary can be (totally) ignorant ……….

    Absolutely sickening. Bush will not lose a wink of sleep and tomorrow will be business as usual. Any one who voted for this criminal has the blood of 4000 Americans on their hands, not to mention hundreds of thousands of Iraqis.


  27. Jackie says:

    Interesting comments as I’m a Mother of an active soldier and know the truth from the front line, I’m sorry to tell you the number of soldiers who have died in much much higher then 4000. Just as Americans believed what their told it is just another lie spread by the Media and White House. The number of dead US soldiers was reached along time ago. As for the 9/11 victims the Foreign press has informed that as Americans noticed the terrorist were mainly from Saudi Arabia and with the fake story of Saddam working with Al Qaeda one would think Americans couldn’t be fooled but Americans were and still are. So keep listening to the lies as the Economy continues to fall, most of you never lived during the Great Depression but with McCain or Obama you’ll get to live it for yourself.

    Most American don’t even remember how the Taliban were invited guest to the United States by then Gov. George W. Bush. During their visit they were given a tour of Washington and all the Departments. Just to like them know how America works. Now isn’t it the same Taliban the US is fighting in Afghanistan? Looks like our President invited the future enemy and gave then all the information they needed. Just like Osama Bin Laden was recruited by Dick Cheney for fight for the United States and now they call him the enemy. Who’s next on the list of future US enemies that this Administration has either threaten or invited to show them around. But if you ask an American they’ll say they never knew that but they can name all the Simpson Family cartoon.

  30. Keith says:

    I don’t believe it: CNN’s ace anchor, Rick Sanchez just asked Michael Ware if the number of Iraqi dead would be two, three, or four times that number!!!

    Ware said a conservative estimate was 80,000–100,000. He should have said that the best methodology gives an answer of 1,100,000!!! That’s 250 X 4,000!!!


  31. Marie says:

    This is so sad — and so unnecessary.
    Tomorrow it will be business as usual at the White House, Cheney will say, “So?!” Bush will say we’re fighting them there….the surge is working. Graham, Lieberman, McCain and the Republicans will say this is all worth it — for whom, I ask. All I see is the Saudis are wealthy beyond measure; the oil companies have made their deal for oil in Iraq, Bush&Co have involved us in a war from which we cannot easily leave. If we leave tomorrow, chaos will reign — if we leave next year, chaos will reign. No matter when, we will have more blood on our hands because of Bush.
    I am so sick of their attitude and their meaningless words.

  42. Krazny says:

    This goes far beyond 4,000 damaged families. In the US alone there are another 30,000 or so damaged families of war wounded, plus the an unknown number of PTSD cases. Factor in all the missing time from home, and it starts really adding up. I know those who sign up for the military do so to protect this country. But they didn’t sign up to create a Pax Americana in the middle east. Or to act as a mercenary force for corporate oil interests.


  43. S. Ann Abram-Franses says:

    What is supportive about adding to the 4,000 already dead soldiers? Tragically the psychological answer to that might well be pride. For McCain & his ilk supporting troops means preventing the humiliation of a Vietnam-style defeat. It also means exposure of our soldiers to horrible dangers, because of pride. 5 years in Iraq and pride trumps protection of our troops.

  52. Mr. Evil says:

    Another strange thing about the beginning of all this chaos. How come there was no real investigation of 9-11? I don’t remember the FBI performing an intense investigation nor any entity from New York. The fire fighters all had numerous things to say about what really happened but were silenced by an indifferent media and coercive influences. We don’t have reporters or journalists anymore. All we have are talking heads who only give us what their corporate owners allow them to or no more fat paycheck. All that has happened under this corrupt, vile administration has been in one way or another orchestrated and carried out with impunity. Why? Why do the Bush/Cheney cabal get a nearly 100% free pass? Has anyone noticed the home mortgage crisis? How about the gas prices that have risen over 200% since Bush was appointed in 2000? Nothing is being done. Hell, even congress is doing nothing to challenge them. They must be complicit because I cannot understand why they are doing absolutely nothing except for the fact that it all revolves around money and power. Don’t make waves and you get money. Simple as that. This is sickening. Health care, inflation, recession barely get a breath from this administration. All they rave about is the imminent terrorist threats and winning in Iraq.
    Their version of winning in Iraq will never happen, but they would like us to believe that as soon as that happens all our troubles will magically disappear. Their arrogance is only surpassed by their stupidity.
    I have one more challenge to Bush and his fantasy about installing democracy in the middle east. When will you demand that Saudi Arabia install a democratic government, George? Don’t anyone hold their breath. Just more hypocrisy. These villainous cretins need to be removed from office either by impeachment (not likely since Pelosi and Reid are spineless) or military coup (also not likely and not advisable but, at least they’d be gone). If we should be so fortunate as to have these criminals finally exposed for what they really are and for them to finally pay for their misdeeds I guess I’d have to finally use an appropriate quote from Dick Cheney, “So.” Because I’ve become as indifferent to them as they are indifferent to us.

  56. mauro7inf says:

    4000. 4000. Heh. Who cares. That’s a handful of people nobody cares about. “Oh, but my son died in Iraq” and “my wife died in Iraq” and whatever. But 4000? ONE MILLION. ONE MILLION. Your grief is real, but multiply that by TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY and you’ll feel what they feel. The number is ONE MILLION, not 4000. 4000 is a tree in the forest compared to the death toll of this war. The Iraqis are people. The American soldiers bravely gave their lives to their country; the Iraqi people made no such choice; they had theirs stolen from them. They wish they could give their lives — they wish their dead relatives and friends still had lives to give, all one million of them. ONE MILLION. That’s your entire county, dead, or your entire state, dead. And here we are crying that 4000 volunteers have died. Get some scale. Someone should mourn the 4000, but everyone should mourn the 1000000.


  57. MasterSatanSmashesBushsFace says:

    When Bush’s time comes, in honor of his LIES, and the GENOCIDE of 1 Million Iraqis and 4000 soldiers for his LIES,

    WHAT do you think his new MASTER Satan will do?

    HMMMMMMM?


  58. Chocolate Jesus says:

    Does someone have any info about the oft discussed claim that the military only counts fatalaties of soldiers who die in iraq (as opposed to being wounded in iraq but dying in a hosptial in another country), or the other claim ive heard which is that mortally wounded soldiers who aren’t likely survive more than some amount of time ( say, a day) are retired before they die so thier deaths dont count? I saw some informatin about this somewhere, im not sure where, I was trying to confirm its accuracy.


  59. Chocolate Jesus says:

    >posts citing an obvious lie

    you mean lies like blackwater having more accountability than any other company even they though they just coincidentally happened to by hired by a division of the government that makes them immune from prosecution for criminal acts commited overseas?


  60. Chocolate Jesus says:

    >You don’t get to talk to anyone about what constitutes an >obvious lie after what you just posted.

    Uhm ok nice dodge. I just posted a question. Apologizes for the intellectual curiousity it may not be something you can relate to. And you’ll have to forgive my simple mind, but I asked if the deaths that take place outside of iraq were counted in the total that is now 4000, I didnt ask if they were publicized or not.
    I still havent seen anything that addreses that.

    >What have you been reading, the Russian press from 1967 ???

    Alot of things. Seeing as I dont read Russian, that wouldnt be one of them. Pardon me for trying to gather information for many different sources. And thanks but really, no one gives a shit what you think deserves and answer or not. If you think the military doesnt try to hide the reality of war, tell that to families of soldiers who want to the press to be there when they greet thier loved ones remains at the airport …the press has been banned since dumbyas dad was embarrased by pics of him + barb laughing shown side by side with dead soldiers coming home. And before you say it, no, im no clinton fan either.


  61. Chocolate Jesus says:

    >http://www.defenselink.mil/releases/release.aspx?>releaseid=7056

    why on earth are you giving me a link to a press release about the death of a retired admiral when i asked about how the iraq bodycount is calculated?


  62. Chocolate Jesus says:

    >WTF are you doing you disgusting little specimin ?

    Blow me you community college philosophy major dropout. All you do is come on here with your obtuse, clumsily worded criticisms that basically all boil down to “your so dumb you agreed with me and you’re too stupid to realize it”.

    I asked for proof one way or another that when a soldier dies out of the war theatre, that his death is added to the tally. You posted a bunch of links to press releases about dead soldiers. I didnt ask whether the military didnt acknowledge thier deaths. I asked for some information about casualty count methodology and you didnt supply any.


  63. Chocolate Jesus says:

    >are all of them complicit in covering up the fact that they >died.

    you make no sense. medical personal are not responsible for pentagon casusalty count methodology. thats like saying that surgeons are responsible for the accurate compliling of statistics about the total amount of gunshot wounds in amierca.

    The 4,000 figure is inaccurate anyway. It only counts soldiers who actually die in Iraq. It doesn’t count 150 or so who were injured in Iraq and then died of their injuries in Germany or the US. The real total is well over 4,000.

    more than 1000 troops would still be alive

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7310924.stm

    US soldiers interviewed by AFP news agency in Iraq said they were saddened by the figure of 4,000 but argued the conflict was justified.
    “Every one of those people signed up voluntarily and it’s a shame that that happens, but tragedies do happen in war,” said senior Airman Preston Reeves, 26.

    –Though every one joined the military voluntarily, not everyone joined to fight in Iraq. Indeed plenty of the dead (and wounded of course) are National Guard whose expectations of actually fighting on foreign soil would have to have been pretty low.—

    Staff Sergeant Jonathan Criss, 37, said the US could not “just walk away and leave the Iraqi people”.

    —Ah yes the Iraqi people, also known as ragheads and “hajis”. Would that include the 14,000 plus incarcerated, the 1 million internally displaced and the 2 million refugee diaspora including the women forced to prostitute themselves in Syria to make ends meet, or the translators who risk their lives alongside the US troops but are given no respite from the violence or worthy compensation of any kind for their efforts? Such concern for the Iraqi people’s well being after 5 years of bloody and murderous occupation; methinks the Staff Sergeant doth protest too much.—

    “If you interviewed the 30,000 [wounded], they would have no ill will,” he added.

    —As long as you didn’t interview all the IVAW members of course. And I’m so-o sure if you interviewed those who have survived their tours physically unscathed and who have been given their orders to deploy again in June, like my neighbor’s nephew and brother, they’d say “bring it on”? I happen to know THEY don;t want to go back–but they will anyway, because they’ve been ordered-to. THAT is not volunteering.


  85. Mr. Evil says:

    Wow! The troll police really got their money’s worth with this Kilo clown. Why aren’t you over there Kilo? Sign up and go, please!
    I don’t worry about what the actual number of deaths related to the Iraq war because there shouldn’t have been any because we never should have invaded them to begin with!
    If Kilo likes to read so much then go here, http://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf. Read page 51 about “the new Pearl Harbor.” 9-11 sure was a coincidence for those neocon nutjobs you seem to fawn all over.
    And please explain how it is that you’ve never met a republican and about joining a party you’re not eligible to. The only way that could be is if you’re under 18 and a complete shut-in or you are from another country. If the latter is the case then how and why did you join the republican party? Maybe a case of voter fraud?


  86. barfly says:

    Something you’ll come to appreciate after those troops are withdrawn and it resumes in full force. And since nobody here seems to ever mention this as a downside to withdrawal, I do mean appreciate.

    Aided in no small part by all the weapons we cannot account for, wielded by our erstwhile partners. By your measure,we must stay permanently, as genocide will occur the second we leave. And since we have slow-mo genocide happening anyway, we’re damned either way. But at least we woulnd’t be footing the enomous bill anymore.

    I remember … New Years Eve 2006-7,…
    Iraq would be under reconstruction and the civil strife SORTED out by now

    The civil strife gets SORTED when the death squads have killed off the rest of the Sunni minority kid. That’s how a GENOCIDE works. Now, sure, they would have got a lot of that done in the past year without US troops in the way, but it would have still taken more than a year.

    Something you’ll come to appreciate after those troops are withdrawn and it resumes in full force. And since nobody here seems to ever mention this as a downside to withdrawal, I do mean appreciate.

    Do you enjoy being viewed as a clueless assbag , who’s honing in on being considered retarded ?

    A bloody civil war is an INEVITABILITY ; who is going to stop it ?

    An AWOL coward and/or an equally clueless plus senile old fart ?

    The Iraqis need to sort out their own differences ; who tried to referee our own Civil War ?

    Kilo likes to pretend that the Iraq war is a noble cause because we’re preventing people from killing each other in a massive slaughter based on what? What tribe they belong to? Their prayer methodology? Let’s pretend…

    Let’s pretend that we never went to Iraq. Saddam Hussein had a deep dislike and fear of Islamic fundamentalitsts. That’s why he squashed any uprising swiftly. And he still had enough of an army to keep Iran at bay and worried so they didn’t pose any real problem either. If Saddam were still in Iraq as our puppet as he once was there would be no insurgency, civil war or American deaths! Wow! Think about it Kilo. If Saddam had been assassinated or died of natural causes and the Shiites and Sunnis started killing each other because Saddam was no longer there to keep them civil even if by a heavy hand, do you think Bush and Cheney would go there to save the day and end the civil war? How about a resounding NO! Does Darfur ring a bell? I don’t want to hear a load of shit about how much they care about the Iraqi people because it simply isn’t true. The Bush/Cheney neocon cabal is about greed, power and oil. They sure as hell aren’t concerned with humanity.


  100. Severus says:

    So, during the surge thus far 914 US troops have been Killed in action. This is a sucess how? Becuase it is lower than the 933 who died over a similar period prior to the surge? A period where the casualties were such that the US public said enough! and voted the republicans out of power?

    And how many countries came to our aid when Senator McCarthy was ruining thousands of American’s lives in the 1950’s because of the paranoia about the communist threat from within? People disappeared, committed suicide and their rights violated because of a paranoid, drunk and his supergay minion, Roy Cohn. I only say that because it’s just another example of their hypocrisy. Bash the gays in public, love them in private.

    Also Kilo, those things have happened here before based on skin color. And if those things happened under Saddam then why didn’t the Iraqi people do anything?

Saddam was brutal,and murderously ruthless in the way he went about business – but all the deaths laid at his door, weren’t actually done by him, or his minions.

    Kilo @#134 are you going to pretend that the killing is not still going on? Are you going to pretend that the Surge is working because 1) we are now arming and paying the Sunni’s who were previously the source of the vast majority of our casualties? becasue 2) Al Sadar has had his troops stand down for over a year? because 3) the sectarian cleansing has nearly been completed? Are you going to pretend that McCain could not go back to the “safe market” he visited with a company of US infantry last year/ Or that Bombs were going off killing people as the VP spoke in Iraq? Are you going to pretend that AQ in Iraq has nominal ties to BinLaden and has not been the source of all the carnage and chaos the white house would have you believe (If you believe the White House you call the comanders in the field liars, so which is it?) Are you seriously going to pretend that invading Iraq really was a good idea? Seeing as Sadaam and IBL were enemies and he was pretty much the main stumbling block to Iran becoming the major mid east power.

    @3159 are you seriously going to believe that you have no clue as to the origin of many of those mass graves you talk about? Here’s a hint, get in your way back machine and go back to the early 1980’s to a time where we the united states encouraged iraq to attack Iran. As a result of that war hundreds of thousands died and were buried in mass graves. Funny thing, in 2003 when we invaded iraq and opened those mass graves the admins sold them as political prisoners being executed by the hundreds of thousands, yet the press exposed those graves as being form the war and the admin backed off their claims. Was sadaam an angel? Hell no, but he was not worth the efforts, lives, treasure and loss of national prestige that this adminsitration has invested.

    How about this, Bush has very very very tight bonds with the Saudi’s, the Kuwatti’s and other oil barons. How about asking them to convert to democracy? Why not start with our suppsed friends and then have democracy flower througout the mid east as planned? I’ll tell you why not, because the democracy issue is a sham and not really on their agenda. If it were then we would be pursuing that angle. This adminsitration only believes in democracy when it suits them and when they agree with the results. That’s why we don’t care for the Palestinian results or the results in Venzuela (thouh if CHavez refuses to leave when his term expires, I will lose faith 100% in him, but i give him the chance since his people voted him in.)

    Are you seriuosly going to pretend that you have no clue as to what I am talking about?

  140. Severus says:

    Kilo your implication in #150 may have been misread by me. Are you referring to deaths post invasion? If you are then you are not following the party line. The party line is that the death counts are exagerated and that figures of 100,000 are wrong. But you are saying hundreds of thousands. If that is the case then things are far worse than even I imagined.

    I was of the thought that you were talking about the mass graves uncovered since the invasion that were rumored to be the work of Sadaam, but which in fact were the work of the Iran/Iraq war which we encouraged and supplied both sides. I only assumed this because of the afore mentioned party line on number of deaths in Iraq, because we all know how loathe republicans are to dissenting to what the king has to say. Am I saying there were no mass grave with politcal prisoners in them from the Sadaam era? Hell no, but the largest mass graves discovered were all from the Iran/Iraq war. Heck we even tried to claim a site where repatriated bodies from the war were being held was a scene of politcal prisoners being killed. I seriously wonder what we woudl find in countries such as Saudi Arabia should we ever choose to exercise our god given right to regime change in that country.

    #166 the AUMF said nothing about removing the regime of Sadaam because we did not like them. It gave the president authorization to go in and remove the WMD etc… Which we did even though we knew in advance that WMD were not there. How else do you explain our actions on invasion? We made no effort to bomb or secure the WMD we said we knew they had and knew where they were. Does it bother you that the adminsitration said with dead certainty that they knew where WMD were located, yet lost track of them? When we did find supposed WMD sites we made a press showing of the affair with troops not even in MOPP 4 opening supposed drums of WMD, we knew nothing would be found, other wise the troops p[utting on the whow would have been dressed in MOPP4 and no press woudl have been allowed within miles of the place. As to the vote for the AUMF, for the first time in American History a president used an upcomming election cycle and the attendant politics involved to get a vote for war ram rodded through congress, eve as that president knew the information his adminsitration was supplying congress was incomplete, biased, incorrect and poorly presented. Does this make it right for DEMs to have supported the vote? Not at all, but the bigger crime/issue is the tactics used to push the vote through.

    You know what is sadly funny about this president and the current republican party? The democrats have effectively rolled on almost everything the president has wanted (wants and needs are two completly different things you know) but the dems could have give Bush everything he asked for and more, and the sad funny thing is that if we had been attacked again, he, and you and the rest of the republican party would have pinned all blame on the democrats.

    I did a prayer the night before Afganistan and Iraq were attacked with our bombardment. I knew in my heart the children over there had to be terrified while the parents were trying to comfort them. I knew the women and men were scared too while pretending not to be for their children sake. I knew young men were expressing anger while repressing their own fears of what was to happen the following day. I hardly slept that night. The next day I could not watch t.v I was sick for I knew too well the end result of our actions.

    Most of you here supported the war, most of you here didn’t think for themselves. Most here did not feel powerless like I did but just imagined in your puny simpleton minds that it was going to be like you were told. “shock and awe” Why did 9-11 happened? These eight yrs later some of you still have no clue. Why does the world hate us? yes, sadly some of you still have no clue. Many of the soldiers that went to Iraq were as naive and brainwashed gun ho swallowing the Kool-aid, listening to the stupid music bum-bum into their ears to bomb-bomb the Iraqui civilians.

    I was angry with the soldiers for a while there, did not understand that yellow ribbon magnet “support our troops” hoopla a few yrs back was all about, more Kool-aid stuff I guess. Now as they come back wounded and soul-hurt I see them opening their eyes, aware, and some even standing tall telling it like it is. I realized they have gone to hell and back already, they have grown and become better men and women due to that experience. I might now make a white ribbon in their honor for they know what peace is supposed to look like, they have seen the eyes of those they’ve hurt. I feel for the 4000 that died because who knows they could have come back to join those that have awaken to life and realized we are all one human race, Imagine!…still a hard lesson and at a heavy price. Maybe one day they’ll realized they are better people for it and stop killing themselves. Too many deaths already.

    Peace be with all of them , their families, and their loved ones. Further deaths will not make theirs more noble.
