"Remind me again, how many civilians got killed in WW2?"

Or in Russia's recent foray into S. Ossetia and Georgia, where killing civilians didn't seem to matter to these same so-called "American" reporters

Just for the record...

...by the conclulsion of WWII, the total number of dead — military, and civilian — was about 50,000,000.

FIFTY MILLION!!

And these modern panty-waists want to raise Cain about a couple of hundred civvies, and ~3500 troops?

HA!

People get all up-in-arms about ~5000 dead in Iraq over the past few years...there’s a total lack of perspective. And not just by comparison of the present with the past, either. There’s crisis yet to come that will absolutely DWARF anything we’ve seen before.

Wait until the events prophesied in Revelation chapter 6 become Breaking News; the world-wide death toll will exceed 2,500,000,000, and will be comprised MOSTLY of civilians claimed by a combination of military action, famine, and disease. 2.5 BILLION!! One fourth of the population of planet Earth!!

It simply staggers the mind; it can’t be comprehended.

And yet we’ve got people in this country stirred up into a seething outrage over 1/500,000th that number??
