How come over 66,000 innocent people died in Iraq because of the war when 2,973 died on 9/11?

Question

http://www.iraqbodycount.net/
Iraq wasn't even responsible for 9/11

lol. gotta to love when people say the terrorist are killing the people of iraq. Where were the so called terrorist before we invaded. Didn't we go there for wmds anyway?

Answer 1

i question iraqbodycount.net as their figures appear low. the reason they died is because saddam dared to sell petrol in euros as opposed to petrol dollar backed by the pentagon. a kirkurk haifa pipeline has been the dream of many an aging zionist too. another reason they died, is because bush's foreign masters dictated American lives be sacrificed to reach objectives not pertaining to America. Americans that teamed up with France to fight the British colonial occupiers were not called terrorists, au contraire they were called freedom fighters, well Irakis that fight the foreign occupiers are also not terrorists, under Geneva conventions they have a legitimate right to fight the imperialist foreign aggressor.

Answer 2

Bush got the US into this war. He lost track of the real target , Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda are still in Pakistan.
He mislead the American people and no invaded the wrong country.
There were no wmds.

Answer 3

They had a lot more time to do the killing. Though 'innocent' is a relative term. The WTC was percieved by some as a symbol of capitalist opression, for instance, similarly, when a sunni insurgent kills some shiites, or a shiite militiaman kills some sunnis, they don't really see them as innocents. Americans, OTOH, are a little more forgiving when deciding who's 'innocent' - we even assume anyone accused of a crime is innocent until it's proven otherwise.

Answer 4

This is Bush's idea of a fair ratio. He doesn't care how many Iraqis die... even if it was not Iraq terrorists. He got Saddam for daddy.. that is all that matters.

And of course Cheney is getting oil for Haliburton.. all is right in the crooked world of the Republicans!

Answer 5

If Iraq wasn't responsible for 9/11, then why are you trying to equate the number of deaths?

That would be like saying "How come 25,000 people die in traffic accidents each year when 2,973 died on 9/11?"

Answer 6

Top Ten Reasons:
1. Self defense
2. Over kill
3. If you bomb they will come
4. Collateral damage
5. American Rifle Association
6. Crusades Part 2
7. Guns jammed
8. There is oil in them there hills
9. Ask Jethro
10. Nobody keeps score " It ain't over till it's over"

Answer 7

The so called terrorist before we invaded was named Sadaam.

Answer 8

The number is incorrect

You have to go back through the Bush Sr - Clinton presidencies and the current lunatic

Between bombs, bullets, depleted uranium and sanctions we've killed over two million Iraqis...more than 600,000 children

This country got all out of whack over the killing of 3,000 of our slave traders

What would we do if another country killed 600,000 of our children

Answer 9

It's because the Americans have this rather perverted idea of the concept of justice. Mind you they have perverted ideas regarding freedom, truth and honour as well.

Answer 10

Except for pinheaded liberals, who has said Iraq was?

Oh and BTW, Saddam openly supported Terrorism in that he gave sanctuary to the planner of the Achille Laural hijack in which American was killed. Plus he gave money to suicide bombers attacking Israel and Americans died from that also. We had so many good reason to take him out and only the blind, stupid or liars don't see it.
