Making false claims that you yourself proved wrong is trolling, good try. All I stated was that the 2 million was bs, which you proved yourself that you were wrong. If you can't read your own statistics than I am sorry.

Even when you added civilians and enemy deaths its still not near 2 million by your statistics. Lol again you were proved wrong by your own source.
Total injured in Iraq 1,690,903
post-invasion violent deaths about 3.3 million (assuming roughly 1 violent death for every non-violent avoidable death i.e. roughly as in US-occupied Occupied Iraq where the ratio of violent deaths to non-violent excess deaths is 0.8-1.2 million to 0.7-0.8 million; see Continued Australian and US Coalition war crimes in Occupied Iraq: ruddaustraliareportcard.blogspot.com... ). 6. upper estimate of non-violent plus violent post-invasion excess deaths 3.3 million + 3.3 million = 6.6 million excess deaths.

Thank you for a very thought provoking Post. just when you think that man has lost his humanity, along comes this police officer who really cared. lt restores your faith a little, not a lot, but we can only hope. Hope that people will take back the control that they let slip so easily from their hands and their hearts. A good place to start is by questioning "Everything", We need to take back "thinking for ourselves" instead of letting our governments do it for us. via the media. Day by day, slowly but surely we seem to be losing our humanity, we are like programmed androids waiting for the latest update from our programmer. Peace starchild.

Kudos to the lady cop.
We need more like her.
Let's get our troops home.
Stop dreaming. Innocent American troops won't go home as long as your: US government and crazed military industrial complex exist, and politicians don't stop meddling with other countries' affairs
The best reaction for any US male is to reject draft and military instructions. Going to jail is more gracious than killing other innocent people in other countries. Simple as that.
