More Than Two Years Of War In Iraq With More To Come
David Paul Kuhn at Salon.Com observed that "There was little reference to the war's length, now at two years and three months," during President George W. Bush's June 28, 2005 address to the nation.
"Bush spoke respectfully of the more than 2,000 Iraqi security forces lost in the line of duty, though he did not mention by number the more than 1,700 American lives lost since the war's onset, nor the far greater tally of U.S. injuries and Iraqi civilian fatalities," Mr. Kuhn wrote in an article headlined "Mission continued."
