The Iran-Iraq War. Estimates that up to 400,000 bought it in that one.

Also the Contra War and related wars in Central America. And the Civil War in Angola. Not defending O but there were plenty of wars going on at that time.

Mass murder in Southeast Asia in the aftermath of the Vietnam War.

The usual Muslim rampages in Africa, Lebanon and Indonesia.

Not a great time then, but also probably no worse than now.
