These innocent people never got to live in a free country like they were promised by Bush. Conditions in Iraq are much worse now than they were before the war!

The government more than likely will not release those numbers. They also will not tell you the truth about how many of our soldiers were killed by friendly fire or by our own men.
Also accidents don't get reported to the public. When ever we are in war the government always tries to give the people back home a possitive view of whats going on, and hides many factors from us. If we knew everything thats really going on this whole country would start boy cotting the war and they don't want that.

There's no way to calculate collateral damage, though I'm sure estimates will be released at some point. Keep in mind that the terrorists intentionally plant their safe houses amongst schools and hospitals to make civilian deaths virtually inevitable. Then al-jazeera and Rosie O'Donnell get to lament about how cruel the American troops are.
Also bear in mind that the source Rosie cited for estimating 655,000 civilian deaths was discredited over a year ago for being grossly inaccurate (more than double what other sources have estimated).
I encourage you to do your own, independent research on this rather than take commentators' words for it, though.

Study your war history. There will always be collateral damage. The 3000 or so people killed on 911 were collateral damage. My question to you is would you rather it be us or them?

Probably not. It's not something our Government would want us to know. I wonder why... :(
