We cannot wait. because American troops continue to die. More than 600 have died since the troop surge began last winter. We cannot wait. because at least 13.500 Iraqi civilians have died since the escalation began. and that is according to very conservative estimates. We cannot wait. because the war is costing a staggering $10 billion every single month. more than $60 billion since the escalation began. We cannot wait. because the violence in Iraq is forcing tens of thousands of new refugees to flee their homes every single month. And we cannot wait. because the escalation has only escalated the violence. April.
