A two-minute song examining an unjust war:
As a retrospective summation, "50,000 Casualties" scrutinizes the Bush Administration's ineptitude, myopia, deception and arrogance in the execution and management of the Iraq War.
This deeply flawed, counterproductive and costly military excursion has, since 2003, lead to tens of thousands of Iraqi deaths (and vastly more injuries and displacements), staggering destruction to the country's infrastructure and social fabric, and thousands of American casualties — for an endeavor of highly questionable strategic merit from the outset.
History will likely regard the incompetent manner in which this war was waged — along with the accompanying expense, damage to America's global prestige and wide-ranging policy abuses (including sanctioned torture, unlawful surveillance and suppression of dissent) — as among the worst disgraces of leadership in the United States' existence.
