Her conclusion: 86,194 men, 39,612 women, and 32,195 children died in one year as a direct and indirect result of the U.S.-led attack and the ensuing Shiite and Kurdish rebellions. Now wait one friggin' minute Karen.. Those civilian deaths were caused by Saddam. He's the one who drained the marshes and slaughtered the Shia Arabs. It was the US who put up the no-fly zone, when the UN was unwilling to interfere in "Iraq's internal affairs". The only blame we bare is that we did nothing to prevent it when it was actually occurring... Put that in your pipe and smoke it... along with whatever "wacky-tobaccy" you're toking on.. Hawk

Beth Osborne Daponte and casualities: my I'm surprised she didn't say a million died, she went to work for GREENPEACE. Propagada BS 64.176.94.191 Q: After you were fired, you appealed and won reinstatement. Whatever happened to your estimate of war casualties? A: I took a leave of absence because I wasn't being given any worthwhile work to do. I went to Greenpeace, and they funded a follow-up study. I spent a whole summer redoing the estimates and submitted it to a professional publication for peer review and then went to Carnegie Mellon. What I had done at Census was the best that could have been done in a short time period. By the time I went to Greenpeace, more data was available.
