Iraq Civilians: 50,000 Dead-- But Who's Counting?

Question

Yes that CIVILIANS, not "combatants" or any other sugarcoated word people might come up with to cover this up.

Freedom? More like FreeDUMB...

Hey sorry, ya know, David Horowitz's website is only a click away, you can use your FreeDUMB to go there if you like.

This figure is derived exclusively from US military reports to avoid controversy on the data. I am sure the number is far higher, but for argument's sake I will maintain the number of 50,000 as a baseline figure.

Answer 1

good question someone on this site has some brains

Answer 2

If you are upset with the body count, remember that it is the CHOICE of the terrorists to fight. They are not under any compulsion to fight. Far from being under attack, we freed them from the insane rule of Saddam Hussein.

These "insurgents", just like every other Iraqi citizen, is encouraged to participate in the political process. However, they CHOOSE not to. They don't want Iraqi citizens to determine their own future. These Islama fascists want to impose their own will on every one else.

After the fall of The Butcher of Baghdad, not one more person had to die. The terrorists CHOSE not to accept democracy. They are purposely trying to deny freedom to the Iraqi people.

Do you understand my point? These terrorists cannot claim to be "freedom fighters". The Iraqis already have freedom. They have drafted their own consitution, elected their own leaders, and written their own laws. If they don't like something about the legitimately elected government, they have the right to change this though the peaceful political process called democratic voting.

Here is the difference: the Americans who fought the British in our war of independence can legitimately be called freedom fighters because they did not have a voice in the government. The government was imposed by the British. The Americans were fighting a government that did not give them a vote. That absolutely is not the case in Iraq.

Remember, the responsibility for all those dead bodies you love to count are due to the terrorist thugs who oppose the new, legitimately elected government of Iraq.

Answer 3

I think you might have that wrong.

The lancet counted 100,000 dead civilians in 2004, however that would tend to be an underestimation - given that they adjusted the figures to exclude Fallujah (where the entire city was wiped out). and the methodology used would not identify deaths where the entire household was killed.

It has now been estimated that the Iraq War has now cost the lives of 300,000 Iraqi civilians, 50% of them under 15.

Answer 4

The invasion of Iraq in March 2003 by U.S.-led coalition forces has been responsible for the death of at least 150,000 civilians (not including certain of Iraq), reveals a compilitation of scientific studies and corroborated eyewitness testimonies.
The majority of these deaths, which are in addition those normally expected from natural causes, illness and accidents, have been among women and children, documents a well-researched study, that had been released by The Lancet Medical Journal.
The report in the British journal is based on the work of teams from the Johns Hopkins University and Columbia University in the U.S., and the Al-Mustansiriya University in Baghdad.
A similar methodology was used in the late 1990's to calculate the number of deaths from the war in Kosovo, put at 10,000.
The information was obtained as Iraqi interviewers surveyed 808 families, consisting of 7,868 people, in 33 different "clusters" or neighbourhoods spread across the country.
In each case, they asked how many births and deaths there had been in the home since January 2002.
That information was then compared with the death rates in each neighbourhood in the 15 months before the invasion that toppled president Saddam Hussein, adjusted for the different time frames, and extrapolated to cover the entire 24.4 million population of Iraq.
The most common cause of death is as a direct result of a worsening 'culture of violence', mostly caused by indiscriminate U.S. co-ordinated air strikes, and related military interventions, reveals the study of almost 1000 households scattered across Iraq. And the risk of violent death just after the invasion was 58 times greater than before the war. The overall risk of death was 1.5 times more after the invasion than before.
The on-going American Occupation has also created worsened civil strife as well as mass environmental destructions and related public health problems that is associated with American bomb-related released radioactive and other life-threatening pollutions. The American Occupation has also prevailed over the neglect to the repairing of vital public services-related infrastructure, which include U.S.-led destructions of water systems. The figure of 100,000 had been based on somewhat "conservative assumptions", notes Les Roberts at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, U.S., who led the study. That estimate excludes Falluja, a hotspot for violence. If the data from this town is included, the compiled studies point to about 250,000 excess deaths since the outbreak of the U.S.-led war.

A: http://www.iraqbodycount.net/

Answer 6

the actual faith does not coach that as quickly as a man or woman dies he is going to heaven if he's robust or that he is going to hell if he's undesirable. The Bible teaches that as quickly as a man or woman dies he returns to the floor from the place he became shaped. Gen.3:19 - Daniel12:2 and greater. So while the demons attempt to faux that they are the spirit of a ineffective man or woman, they are rather merchandising the fake coaching that a man or woman maintains residing even after dying. do not confuse this with persons that are chosen to circulate to heaven which the bible says are in user-friendly terms a hundred and forty four,000 Rev.14:3. those chosen ones have not got a spirit that comes out of their physique while they die. What happens is that Jehovah recreates them back yet this time as suitable immortal spirits.a million Corinthians 15:50-fifty 4. by ability of how did you recognize that the angels are actually not immortal? devil and his demon are fallen angels and intensely quickly Jehovah is going to place them in a reformatory for a one thousand years and then he will enable them to loose for a quick quantity of time then he will ruin them consistently. Rev.20:a million-3,10,14,15. the lake of hearth is symbolic meaning ever- lasting destruction.
