Here's a site that lists American war dead through history to 2001.

Don't get me wrong, that's a good link. But I'm looking for someone who understands that the fatalities in Iraq are worth the cost.
I don't know if there is a "cost-benefit" analyis of the Iraqi war that's been done yet. For example: How many people would have died in the USA of we didn't take the war to the terrorists in Iraq?
I know that's probalby an unanswerable question, that's why I was looking for an op-ed or blog entry that would explain how the deaths in Iraq are worth the sacrifice better than I could.
