Christian Right group attacks Anti-War movement with disingenuous statistics
"AMERICA MORE DANGEROUS THAN IRAQ! At least that seems to be the argument being made by the Christian Defense Coalition: "Last month in America, 1,400 innocent people were murdered on the streets of America, while 38 American solders were killed on the streets of Iraq. In light of these staggering and horrific numbers, we encourage all anti-war groups to refocus their efforts and resources to help end the violence in America." Of course, there are only 170,000 US troops in Iraq, versus 300,000,000 million Americans."

How many innocent people were murdered on the streets of Iraq last month?
