We maintain a daily count based on news reports (http://antiwar.com/updates/). It is not intended to be complete. There is no agency that keeps track of accurate numbers of Iraqis killed. JustForeignPolicy (http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/iraq/iraqdeaths.html) maintains a running estimate based on the Lancet study (http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(07)60062-2/fulltext) with the rate of increase derived from the Iraq Body Count (http://www.iraqbodycount.org/).

Title: Re: What Does War Gain A Country When There Is Nothing To Gain Post by: Me_Beavis_U on 08 17, 10, 10:42:50:AM Until you have full knowledge of world politics, resource demand and population control, There is no answer. The war and country involved may only be a pawn in an entirely different agenda.
This current war is keeping conservatives on the battlefield and out of the Communists hair for now. Title: Re: What Does War Gain A Country When There Is Nothing To Gain Post by: dallas795 on 08 17, 10, 10:44:39:AM (http://a.imageshack.us/img716/2240/bsmeter.gif)

Quote Tell that to those you remain behind and the remains in the body bags that are forever dead because of lies. Just like the ones told by that paragon of the democratic party, LBJ, concerning the incident in the Tonkin Gulf. A whole bunch more body bags that this (around 50K, I believe). Dullass again blathered: Quote What have you ever given to your country Sweet. Please don't even try... Please enlighten us as to what you have ever given to your country, dullass, I don't mean pay your taxes, all of us do that.

War never gains any country, as in the people of that country, anything. Wars are fought to enrich the elite and do nothing but harm all others involved. |
