Hidden U.S. Deaths Of Gulf Wars

Since Gulf War 1 - 73,846 US Dead, 1,620,906 Disabled

By Peter Marshall E. Boomhower


12/13/07 "ICH" -- -- The US department of veteran affairs has issued an official report (See report in full) that confirms 73,000 U.S. troops killed and 1.6 million "disabled" by Persian Gulf wars. 73,846 U.S. Troops Dead (Page 6) and 1,620,906 permanently disabled ( Page 7)

George Walker Bush has presided over the worst defeat of the United States Military since Vietnam and has deliberately skewed reporting of the deaths and injuries to conceal the facts.

The Department of Veteran's Affairs, in conjunction with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has released the truth because they need the American People to know our military is literally, destroyed.

They cannot release these horrific numbers via the chain of command because they are under orders to conceal the truth at all costs, so they let slip a report which now cannot be "un-slipped."

Here are the facts and a link to the government source to prove these facts:

More Gulf War Veterans Have Died Than Vietnam Veterans.

1. And all the PTSD cases who will fall into alcoholism and madness.....

Well, I guess we know where our next 40-50 years' worth of HOMELESS PEOPLE are coming from.......

2. 73k dead US soldiers from Gulf 1 and Gulf 3? Bullshit

that source you cite is probably the loopiest, dumbest, and most oblivious to the most undemanding facets of logic I've ever seen. I wouldn't quote it in a bar fight. The article is statistically illiterate.

4. Take it up with the US Dept. of Veteran Affairs-they issued

the official report.

5. Oh dear

1.6 million disability claims does NOT equal 1.6 million disabled vets, you know.... right?

and 73,000 deaths of people who served in the army (not deployed means, by the way, that they weren't deployed) during the late 1980s and early 1990s just means that out of the millions and millions of people who served in the active duty forces, 73,000 of them have died over the last 26 years.

8. Did you even bother to click on the link:? The numbers are broken down

in the article, so you're not telling me anything new. Not that you care, you just attack. I'm impressed...not.

12. I clicked on the link, and if you can't understand that you're

being manipulated big time by the author of that piece, well, I'm sorry. His claims are largely bogus. Beginning with the initial one.

15. You are quite correct cali nt

[cali]

9. don't even bother

there are too many people driven by their preconceived notions. And it's pretty clear that many here are more or less illiterate when it comes to parsing figures.

[babylonsister]

11. There you are, ms. critical cali. I knew you'd pop up to let us know

how dumb we all are. You're right on time.

[cali]

13. don't sound so bitter, bs

and try actually downloading and reading the pdf the author links to.

[FourScore]

14. I don't know if you have a valid point or not,

all I'm picking up on is an arrogant and nasty tone. Yuck!

[cali]

16. that's not even remotely what the Dept of Veteran Affairs is

saying. Not even close.

The author of the piece you posted is lying. It's as simple as that.

3. k&r

6. oh my word. this says it all regarding the

accuracy of this interpretation of the data:

"Deaths amongst Non-Deployed: 55,999"

Do you understand that these folks were never deployed to the theater?

Informationclearinghouse is about as accurate as worldnutdaily.

10. Shocking, sad, and thoroughly believable. nt.
