Nature magazine. If you have performed a fact-based study showing a lesser number of dead Iraqis maybe we can work with your number. What is your number?

If those numbers came from Nature Magazine, you should reconsider your subscription. MY number is 30,000. I got that from the White House briefing. I know for a fact, though, that a mathematician, who wishes to remain anonymous, puts the number at 125. Really, MM, do you believe that 15,000 Iraqi's per month have been killed since the start of the insurgency? More than the total number of German soldiers killed in WWII? More than the total number of American soldiers killed in WWII, the Korean War, and the Viet-Nam war, combined?

I'm not offering any numbers, as the topic of the moment is an investigation of your claim. Can you provide a link?

Calling that a "fact-based study" is like looking at the Boston Red Sox and calling them the Rockettes. The numbers are give or take 56%. Gimme a break.

Get educated here.

Perhaps if they didn't include the dead Iranians, Syrians, Jordanians, so-called-Palestinians, Suadis, et al who came to fight for the terror cause....
