It's nice to see you, as “Liberty Tree Surgeon,” describe dealing with an opponent as costing “millions of lives” when even Wikipedia says the following:

“An estimated 151,000 to 1,033,000 Iraqis were killed in the first three to five years of conflict. US troops were officially withdrawn in 2011.”

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_War

You post lies even Wikipedia won't support. “Millions?” Really?

Oh, I’m so sorry. Since it’s only up to a million, that’s really not a concern. As Stalin said - that’s just a statistic.

Of course, that Wikipedia entry ends in 2011 and doesn’t count the destabilized region and subsequent rise of ISIS, the ensuing slaughter and refugee crisis, knock-on effects in Syria, etc. that led to considerably more deaths (maybe even a million, but if not, meh).

But again, just statistics - statistics don’t suffer at all, right?
