The Bush Sr. Library has some pretty cool stuff, to be honest, on Iraq, Ukraine, the DDR.<\/p>\n

On 28 February, Bush declared victory. The BBC reported that the Western allies had lost 148 soldiers in battle, and 145 more from other causes. The number of Iraqi soldiers killed by aerial bombardment and the ground war was estimated at between 60,000 and 200,000. American media at the time, mindful of the Vietnam syndrome,\u00a0 downplayed human casualties and focused on destroyed Iraqi equipment and burning oil wells. „Nobody knows,“ the BBC wrote, „how many civilians died in the war, but estimates for civilian deaths as a direct result of the war range from 100,000 to 200,000.“ In contrast to the fourteen civilians in Lithuania, the West largely ignored these huge numbers of casualties.<\/p>\n
