Your the one playing a game. You make statements that flat out are not true. Then people call you on it and you accuse them of playing games with semantics. Is this an intentional strategy?

As for the wider issue of Iraqi civilian deaths.

1 - The numbers available now are preliminary. I'd like to see more conclusive numbers.

2 - Every effort was made to spare Iraqi civilian lives, that makes the situation a lot different then when the Palestinians deliberately try to murder civilians.

3 - The number that would have been killed by the continuation of Saddam's rule and by the negative effects of sanctions is probably higher then the number killed by "Shock and Awe".

You play the semantics game while people die. Sad!

No. I simply ask that we discuss serious issues with truthful posts. if you have points to make, make them with facts, not false hyperbole.
