Pelosi: No Link Between Iraq and 9/11 Body Counts

ScrappleFace » :
(2006-12-26) — As news broke that the 2,974th member of the U.S. military had died in Iraq this week, pushing the U.S. death toll beyond the number who died in the 9/11 terror attacks, House Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi, D-CA, rejected theories of a connection between the Iraq and 9/11 death tolls.

“It makes no sense to compare the body counts,” said Rep. Pelosi. “Saddam Hussein did not knock down the World Trade Center or hit the Pentagon. So, anyone who touts a link between what al Qaeda did on our soil in 2001 and what al Qaeda and other Islamic terrorists are doing now on Iraqi soil is a conspiracy theorist and fraud. There is no relevant connection.”

The lawmaker noted that “while U.S. troops are dying in Iraq because President George Bush has placed them in harm’s way for an ultimately meaningless and impossible cause, the 9/11 victims perished because of President Bush’s failure to reach out to radical Muslims, understand their grievances and find common ground during his first nine months in the White House.”

She encouraged all Americans to ignore the “body-count comparison stories” because, “as everyone knows, there’s no linkage between Iraq and 9/11 — other than they’re both Bush’s fault.”
