... He said as he mounted Osama Bin Laden's head on a specially prepared plaque in the basement of the White House.

He didn't start the fight, but he sure as heck finished it.

As for the number of deaths... more people die in traffic accidents:

The Ministry of Health 2009 Annual Report revealed that in Iraq, the injury toll from road accidents is almost four times greater than that from acts of terrorism. (WHO press release, 11 May 2011)

Terrorist attacks aren't good, but a little perspective is needed. If they deployed troops to remind people to drive safely and buckle up more lives would be saved, but instead they're more concerned with what goes into the car than what happens once the car is started. This entire fiasco was about ensuring the U.S.'s access to the last drops of oil, instead of pushing harder for green technologies. Hundreds of thousands of people died just so that some surburban housewife could drive her gas-guzzling SUV to drop the kids off at soccer. God Bless America!! ... because a lot of people are cursing you right now.

Frungy,

Once again, you said it!

Hundreds of thousands of people died just so that some surburban housewife could drive her gas-guzzling SUV to drop the kids off at soccer. God Bless America!! ... because a lot of people are cursing you right now.

And, the way things are going, a whole lot more will be cursing American militarism in the future too.
