I saw that show today too and personally, I was shocked. I didn't realize it was that high. It didn't say how all those died. I mean some might have been from other Iraqis etc...
To answer your question:
That is not liberation. The bottom line is no matter how they died, they are dead because we invaded, occupied and turned their country upside down.

Most of those were killed by terrorist attacks.... and many of those that were killed by coalition forces were terrorists and insurgents who are not part of an army so they count them as civilians. Regardless the loss of human life is tragic. This is why we must give our troops as much support as possible to allow them to do their job to bring security to the region (this may require killing more insurgents and terrorists). The new Iraq will be a free and peaceful nation once these bad apples are weeded out.

How many of those were killed by Insurgents who don't want peace or liberation. It should be plain and simple for anyone to see that these insurgents are so against Freedom there willing to kill there own to attempt to prevent it from happening. And on a personal note ANYTHING terriost oppose as bad as they do Iraq's Freedom MUST BE A GOOD THING.

That figure is just a small fraction of the Iraqis who died under Saddam Hussian.
That figure is largely Iraqi on Iraqi violence. It's sectarian warfare and it looks more and more like a civil war.

Sure they were all poor people. Nobody cares about the poor.
If they had money then they would be in France or Switzerland waiting out the war.

where's you see that figure? I know of no official figure, and the 100,000 the Lancet published included people killed by fellow iraqis, not just by coalition forces.

That is cool. Screw all of those ARAB terrorists. What we should do is obliterate Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and whoever else wants to screw with us. And North korea.

No, it's ignorance and stupidity on their part for not accepting the help when it came to them and for being so stupid they want to kill us every time we turn around to help them.
They are immature, ignorant, selfish and just plain weird!
