    Go Obama 2008!

    he will save the envoronment, save the economy, give Israel back to the Palestininans, make us all rich and live happily ever after.

  3. i dont think anyone knows for sure.  its a part of the riggers of combat.  i know of childrens parents leaving them in a car thats a car bomb to make it not look suspicious, if they are willing to do that no one would really know.

  4. 5,000 according to Yahoo search engine, out of a total 25,000 killed

  5. more dan 2lac........dis very sad all of......

  6. One too many!

  7. Just as there is no way of knowing how many Iraqi civilians have died as a result of the US/UK invasion and occupation of Iraq. different surveys which have have attempted to arrive at a figure have produced a wide range of results.

  8. How many Iraqi children were killed when Saddam used gas weapons on his own people. How many young girls were taken from their families so that his sons could use them as s*x slaves-most of which were never seen again.

    I could go on and on....and all of it has proved to be true.

    If you do a little research you will find that I have a reason to believe as I do. We should have taken out Saddam long before 9/11.

  9. Whatever the number is- that number does not state if the children were killed by the US or the terrorists.  

    The difference:  The terrorists ARE targeting civilians.  The US isn't.

  10. We still have a few to go.

  11. The Americans learned one lesson from Vietnam: don't count the civilian dead. As a result, no one knows how many Iraqis have been killed in the five years since the invasion. Estimates put the toll at between 100,000 and one million, and now a bitter war of numbers is raging.

    About 100,000 Iraqi civilians - half of them women and children - have died in Iraq since the invasion, mostly as a result of airstrikes by coalition forces, according to the first reliable study of the death toll from Iraqi and US public health experts

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/oct...

    According to credible estimates, for every American soldier and Marine killed in Iraq, some 250 Iraqis have lost their lives over the five years since the US invaded and occupied the country.

    The prominent British polling agency, ORB, produced an estimate of 1.2 million civilian deaths last September, a figure that closely tracked the findings of a public health survey conducted 18 months earlier by a team of scientists from Johns Hopkins University, which placed the most likely Iraqi death toll at 665,000 as of early 2006.

    In addition to the dead, over 4 million Iraqis have been driven from their homes by violence—half of them forced into exile and the rest becoming refugees in their own country. Tens of thousands of Iraqis are imprisoned without charges in a US-run gulag, where many have faced torture and ill-treatment. Since the “surge,” the numbers of Iraqis arrested daily by US forces has doubled.

    Agence France-Presse quoted one of the many millions more who have been left devastated by the carnage unleashed by the US war.

    “Um Mohammed, a 49-year-old widow in Baghdad’s western Mansur neighborhood, whose husband was abducted and shot by gunmen 15 months ago, bitterly blamed the US military for the loss, which has profoundly affected her and her family,” AFP reported.

    “Why does the world care so much about the 4,000 soldiers killed? No one cares about the Iraqis,” she said. “All the killings in Iraq are because of the Americans. They are the cause of all the bloodshed. I ask Allah to kill all the American soldiers—to count them all and not leave any one of them. The world regards the American soldiers as our saviors but they are murderers.”

    These sentiments are representative and ensure that armed resistance will continue as long as a single American solder remains in Iraq.
