Actually, the cost is historically low in terms of lives on all sides, as a result of the US efficiency and "smart" ordinance Civilian deaths in Iraq since the beginning of the US/UK invasion: 8,059 minimum, 9,896 maximum. iraqbodycount.net 9,000 dead Iraqi civilians in the invasion of Iraq. 3,000 dead American civilians in 9/11. If the victims of 9/11 killed by Al-Qaeda are significant, than those in Iraq that your army killed have to be. That "historically", wars claimed more civilian lives is no excuse. Nobody is going to feel good about the deaths of 9,000 Iraqi civilians just because this number is lower than the victims of the firebombing of Dresden.
