Tens of thousands? Cites please...humm...lets see....

Will you believe George W. Bush? He said "30,000." That is three "tens
of thousands."

Sure, civilians killed total, but only a fraction of those due to
collateral damage from coalition fire. Most are from suicide bombers
and the like.

Nope..doesnt appear to be Tens of Thousands of dead Iraqi civilians as
a result of our actions. And based on their best estimates..it would
appear that most of those 30,000 deaths are the result of Jihadists
and outright criminals killing Iraqis.

If we had not invaded, none of the 30,000+ deaths would have occurred.

No, the 30,000 that Saddam would have butchered might have been a
different 30,000, killed in much more interesting ways.


But your opinion doesn't count for squat, here or there. What counts is
what the decent people of Iraq think. They will tell you that despite
the pain, they are better off for the US having interceded.
