You missed the entire point of the article. The War on Terror is the LEAST bloody war in all of American history. That is less than ALL wars, not just the Civil War.

As the figures plainly show, the Civil War was our MOST bloody war. This is true of all casualties on both sides. But it is STILL true if you look at only the Union casualties.

Far from setting up a "straw man," I state the plain unvarnished facts. You may disagree with them, but you cannot deny them.

As the figures plainly show, the Civil War was our MOST bloody war.

But you've missed my point - the civil war does not belong in this set of wars you are using to compare to the Iraq conflict. It has no similarities.
