73,846 US Soldiers Dead From Both Gulf Wars ~ How They Manipulated The Numbers To Fool You

If a soldier was dead from his combat tour,

he was a war casualty.

There are 58,195 names recorded on the Vietnam War Memorial in Washington, DC.

They decided to report the war deaths in Iraq

only if the soldier died with his boots on the ground in a combat situation.

The actual figures have been hidden from the American public just like the returning,

flag draped coffins were censored from the press.
