An antiwar person is a direct offspring of Hitler or Stalin.
Neither. I’m going with the peer-reviewed Lancet’s figure of three million gabillion.
If I were to give you a source: US Military.
(sarcasm)
The anti-war people use the George Soros funded Lancet Report that had been proven bogus. It's not even a count. It's a sample survey that is extrapolated.
If 1 million have been killed that is about 16,000 killed per month. Have you heard reporting ever that 16,000 have been killed in a month, much less every month since the war started.
And for the record, at Iraq Body Count, the coalition forces were responsible for approximately 350 deaths in 2005, 550 deaths in 2006, and some 700 deaths in 2007. The remaining deaths of some 80K are from the insurgency and al-Qaeda.
And yes, it's disturbing that the MSM allows this 1 million deaths to go unchecked. There is no longer professional journalism in the MSM.
All of the body counts have been a propaganda effort by the Left.
Our government does not release a tally of all US soldiers “killed in Iraq”. There are individual death notices (combat, accidental, medical, etc.) around the world.
The Left has padded the numbers again and again (amongst the most obvious example was when they included a woman who died crossing the highway in Kansas).
What is the total number of accidental and medical deaths on bases featuring people who were NOT deployed to Iraq over the past 5 years?
I don’t mean to take away from anyone’s service. I mean to highlight that the media has ALWAYS been running with the Left’s bogus numbers.
The Left declared from the beginning that there would be 25,000-50,000 dead US soldiers (when the body bags start coming home) and 1,000,000 dead Iraq civilians.
How many of the dead civilians were killed by so called insurgent TERRORISTS?
How many dead so called civilians were foreign nationals waging war on Iraqi soil?
How many dead so called civilians were members of the so called insurgency?
That’s because the news media IS antiwar.com
