and the many Iraqi civilians killed by a terrifying war. The 911
SpeakOut invited mothers of soldiers killed and maimed in this unjust
war to talk about the tragedy they've suffered. Read figures on the
numbers of U.S. soldiers killed and injured, the number of Iraqis
destroyed, and the struggle of their families.
