Government of Puerto Rico: U.S. casualities double official count. |
Number Of Iraq Casualties Is Double Official Figures,
Says Puerto Rican Government
By Jesos D?vila, El Diario
Translated from Spanish by Carolina Gonz?lez.
Official US. government reports on soldiers under US command killed in Iraq
are so fragmented that they account for less than half of the total number,
according to information uncovered as part of an inquiry by the Government
of Puerto Rico regarding the total number of Puerto Rican war casualties.
This analysis was confirmed by El Diario/La Prensa's review of multiple
documents, including official reports issued by the US Department of
Defense, the Iraqi Ministry of the Interior and more than 230 battlefront
reports, which reveal that more than 4,076 troops under US command have been
killed in 799 days of battle.

If you get shot in Iraq, but die in Germany at the hospital, they don't
count that as a combat death in Iraq.
.... some accounting system.
You think they were trying to hide the actual death toll of the war, but
why would George and our government lie to us?
