Not Your Sweetie

Conason Journal Reveals:

The first Bush
administration suppressed her horrifying estimates of the real "collateral damage" because they contradicted what
Dick Cheney was saying at the time. But the American Statistical Association endorsed her findings.


Daponte, who now teaches at Carnegie Mellon University, calculated that "13,000 civilians were killed directly by
American and allied forces, and about 70,000 civilians died subsequently from war-related damage to medical
facilities and supplies, the electric power grid, and the water system." Do you suppose anyone will poll Americans
to ask what level of death and devastation to innocent Iraqis would be too much?
