First of all, lets try this: American census of 2000, seems there are only 2.4 million Indians in America I was low by .4, you were over by 9.6 million. Get a clue, there were a hell of a lot more indians before. As for the Mexicans...yup they were no where except in Texas, New Mexico (geah...wonder why they called it that?), Arizona and California. Nothing like some revised history to clean your hands, is there? First off, the Phillipinoes helped America take the land from Spain in 2 weeks, and then fought the US for 4 years once they figured out they'd just trade Colonial masters. The proper comparison of Afghanistan was Vietnam, where 3 million vietnamese died. Nothing like Carpet bombing the northern cities or Zippo Expressing the southern villages.

Yeah there were "millions" of stone age Indians living in America! Funny- that is why a handful of sick Europeons were allowed to conquer them? Hunter Gathers need alot of land- the best estimate is that maybe at the time of the first English settlement on America there were a million Indians. Please!

The Mexicans? tell me- were are the mass graves- the mexicans thrown off their land? There were none because the only people living on that land were White Settlers being ruled by a mexican government that had no mexican settlers! Idiot.

Viet Nam itself claims 2 million dead. America says 1 million. But regardless- most of the fighting was between the ARVN and the NVA or Viet Cong- Ie a civil war. We never carpet bombed cities in Viet Nam. But Russia did strafe civilian refugee caravans with routine! The Russian behavior in Afghanistan was one of the lows in human history. Poising wells- executing entire villages as a matter of routine! Land mines shaped as toys for kids to pick up!

Anyway- where did the refugees flow? In Viet Nam they came South- to Freedom and American held territory. Did the refugees flow North into Russia in Afghanistan? No- don't think so.
