I'm thinking that even though a lot of innocent Iraqis have been killed on our watch, we haven't yet caught up to the deaths purportedly caused by Hussein (we'll never know since he was only tried for 150 deaths).
However, I am concerned that Bush's troop surge plan may be twisted by our "allies" in Iraq so that many more innocent Sunnis (the moderate Islamists) will be killed by the Shiites we appear to be supporting.

The Iraqis claim that Saddam is responsible for over a million deaths. The US has killed very few. The hundreds being killed now are killed by other Iraqis.
Even if you want to claim that Americans are doing all of the killing ( which even the most ingorant knows is not the case ), it would still be far short of the deaths ordered directly, or with his approval.
Sometimes it pays to say nothing until you know what you're talking about.

1) We didn't.
2) Almost all of those we did kill were Iraqi soldiers & terrorists.
Almost all Iraqi civilian deaths were inflicted by other Arabs. Even they still have a long way to go to catch up with Saddam.

Are you serious?
I guess there is not difference between intentional and accidental for you is there.
Saddam intentionally killed millions of people. We haven't even come close to that.

Because it's the US, and in the eyes of many in the US, we can't do wrong. Often that attitude reflects lack or information about what we are doing.

Apparently you only believe Saddam Killed the 150 plus Kurds he hanged for. He was a BRUTAL Murderer who killed Thousands who Opposed him. But Look at teh Bright side you still have Hugo Chavez and that Nut Job leader of Iran to Worship.
