I'm as guilty of it as everyone else - when I blog about bush's dead, I feel obligated to list the 2,000+ US servicemen first and then the 15,000+ US wounded before I feel that I can safely mention the 50-100,000 Iraqis who have been slaughtered in bush's war. It's a way of putting the damage bush has done to the USA ahead of what he's done to other countries. That reeks of "American lives are more valuable than XXX lives," doesn't it?
That's sort of a chickenshit cop-out on my part, and I think I'm going to stop it.
From now on, when I list the dead from bush's war, I'll list the victims from the country that's suffered the most under bush's war first, and that's Iraq.
