We hear about every "little" AMERICAN death. How many Iraqis have died in this invasion so far? I would hazard a guess that most Americans have no clue, and our media isn't interested in reporting that. This might explain why some of my fellow citizens seem mystified why anyone could reject our cultural hegemony over that of Saddam's.
