"Pemerintah Amerika Serikat bangga bahwa, meskipun mungkin 100.000 warga Irak telah tewas dalam Perang Teluk 1991, hanya ada 48 korban perang Amerika. Apa yang disembunyikannya dari publik adalah bahwa 206.000 veteran perang itu mengajukan klaim kepada VA atas cedera dan penyakit. Pada tahun-tahun sejak perang itu, 8.300 veteran telah meninggal, dan 160.000 klaim cacat telah diakui oleh VA."

The United States government was proud that, although perhaps 100,000 Iraqis had died in the Gulf War of 1991, there were only 48 American battle casualties. What it has concealed from the public is that 206,000 veterans of that war filed claims with the VA for injuries and illnesses. In the years since that war, 8,300 veterans have died, and 160,000 claims for disability have been recognized by the VA.
