DR tried to say that if we hadn't invaded and occupied, that SH would have been killing more Iraqi civilians than we are presently killing every day. That that was the trend. He used the total Iraqi people that SH had killed over his tenure, and then averaged that number on a per day basis. Actually, that isn't what I said. It has been reliably determined that Saddam's policy was resulting in the deaths of 5,000 innocents PER MONTH in the years before his removal, solely from malnutrition and starvation. Perhaps we've killed 5,000 or a few more civilians during the year of the war. It still doesn't equal the 60,000 that would have surely died had we not removed him.
