sharkat discovered 5 months ago- Interesting Statistical Comparisons Every 9.74 days in Iraq & Afghanistan, there are an equivalent amount of casualties as on September 11th. There are 9.53 Virginia Tech shootings in Iraq & Afghanistan every day. There are on average 305 daily civilian deaths in Afghanistan and Iraq. In 14 days, as many Iraqi and Afghani civilians are killed as the entire amount of American military personnel killed since the invasion of Afghanistan in 2002

- This fear mongering leftist bullshit is going to make a lot of fucked up lefties go out and vote for Obama believing a bullshit lie that blood runs thru the streets at hands of American Solders. Get a clue as to exactly who is doing all the killing. 1. An outside insurgency like Al-Qeda 2. Sectarian violence 3. Iran Slimy fucks who have a culture of death are the ones you need to look for. There has been more care given to not killing civilians than any other war the US has been in.

- There is no real army in Iraq, so people shooting at you are considered civilians too..

- Invading Iraq & Afghanistan because of Sept 11th was a very heavy-handed response by an arrogant leadership who had no idea what they were getting into. This entire war was supposed to have cost us less than 50 billion dollars, initially, and the Iraqis were supposed to have been swimming in oil revenues by now.

- Interesting Statistical Comparisons Every 9.74 days, there is an equivalent amount of casualties in Iraq & Afghanistan as September 11th. There are 9.53 Virginia Tech shootings in Iraq & Afghanistan every day. There is on average 305 daily civilian deaths in Afghanistan and Iraq. In 14 days, as many Iraqi and Afghani civilians are killed as the entire amount of American military personnel killed since the invasion of Afghanistan in 2002 and the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Note: There is some discrepancy between various sources on the amount of civilian casualties since the US-led invasion in Iraq and Afghanistan. A study in October of 2006 listed over 650,000 killed (see Washington Post article below) while other sources vary from over 1 million to just over 80,000 (see British-government funded Iraq Body Count below). I computed 400,000 Iraqi civilian fatalities and 45,000 Afghani civilian fatalities by averaging several sources, though I personally feel these are conservative estimates. Update: The differing methodologies among these studies led to these wide variations. For example, the lowest figure from IBC is based solely on media reports of violent deaths, while the Lancet study surveyed random families in Iraq and includes non-violent war related deaths, such as those dead to lawlessness and collapsed infrastructure. Raw Data: 400,000 Iraqi Civilian Deaths, 45,000 Afghani Deaths, 4,208 US Deaths in Iraq (3,972 of which are US armed forces and 236 private contractors), 415 US Deaths in Afghanistan, and 2,974 September 11th Deaths.

- the numbers are disputed...

- See the disparity per region? Thats because the Iraq civilian casualties rate is in dispute, to the tune of a supposed 600,000 to another estimates 30,000. Pretty fucking huge disparity, don't you think? Of course the MSM reports the estimated dead as "between 30,000 and 600,000," without stopping to consider the strong probability that the gigantic figure is a complete falsehood.
