4,000 Killed in Iraq War

The death toll of Americans in the Iraq War has reached 4,000.

President Bush delivered a speech Monday addressing the family and friends of those that have died in the war.

“One day, people will look back at this moment in history and say, ‘Thank God there were courageous people willing to serve, because they laid the foundations for peace for generations to come,’ ” Bush told reporters after a meeting at the State Department.

The war is a major issue for the 2008 presidential campaign. With the death toll climbing higher, many Americans may vote for a candidate that promises to end the war.
