Does anyone know approximately how many Iraqi civilian casualties there has been since we invaded Iraq?

Question

And well the reason that I ask this question is because we invaded Iraq based on a lie, it has been told time and time again even by those very close to him that he only wanted information that would allow him to invade iraq. After the WMD's didn't pan out, we did it because of Saddam killing 30,000 iraqis when he gassed a city. I know that is horrible, but hasn't bush either intentionally or by horrible planning, killed so many more innocent people than saddam? And they are some crazy "mo fo's" over there, or anywhere there is a religion with a jihad clause, but as long as we are there and invaded their country, Bush is for the most part to blame.

So would it be justified for another country to come over here and invade our country, rape our women, make all the men do sexual things to each other, and bomb our wedding receptions? Or should Bush share the same fate as the ahole hussain?

Answer 1

Well, a joint study by respected US Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, the British medical journal The Lancet, and the Mustansiriya University in Baghdad, estimated in 2005 that "as a result of the coalition invasion, approximately 655,000 Iraqis have died".

That was almost three years ago, so the figure must be around the one million mark now. The above report was pretty well buried by the UK & US press, so most British and American people have precious little idea how much blood has been spilled in the quest for oil under the banner of Freedom. To put it another way, many more Iraqis have died as a result of our authority than ever did as a result of Saddam Hussein's

Answer 2

probably several thousand.. how many were killed before the Iraq invasion.. Probably 10s of thousands.. don't forget that Saddam had entire villages in northern Iraq totally eliminated.. if you are trying to get more information that you can use to justify your dislike for Bush.. I think you need to look a little deeper into the history of Iraq before you start your condemning process.. don't mean to insult you or belittle your question.. it is just that I don't agree with people who have an agenda for asking these types of questions.. So I may be a little more blunt than is necessary. Americans are not killing innocent Iraqi citizens purposefully.. their own people are killing them.. and that is the point.. probably 99 percent of those killed were killed by their neighbors.. not the US and most certainly not Bush. best wishes

Answer 3

The Lancet study is absurd. They can spew out they're sampling methods all they want, but all you have to do is look for one report of daily deaths that supports their numbers.

One report, that's all. You'd think in 4+ years of the intensive coverage Iraq has been subject of there would be one report of the numbers of war-related deaths required to make those fantastice numbers of the Lancet study valid.

You won't find one.

The real number is probably approaching 150,000 these days, which includes terrorists killed. Too many for sure, but consider that that number is less than the amount of people killed on USA roads because of traffic accidents during that same time frame.

Answer 4

From what Bush has told us, it doesn't matter. Everyone that lives in the Middle East is a terrorist from the age of 4.

Answer 5

The last number I saw was 600,000, but that was some time ago.

I'd put it about a million.

It's impossible to know exactly, but that would be my current best estimate.

Answer 6

It's hard to tell for sure. The people all dress the same and you can't see the guns till they fall down.

Answer 7

Not as many as were killed by their leader before we stepped in!!!!!!!!!
