8. A few changes to your statistics.
1. Number of dead civilians: 30,000 to 40,000. And that was at the end of the main hostilities. This was done by a group that went door-to-door through Iraq to get the names of the dead.

3&4 - the number dead looks like around 1,200 and 10,00-14,000 wounded. The wounded is from the New York Times. The death figure includes the dead from the wounded that were taken out of Iraq. They are not counted in the official government list.

So many lies. This is making the Vietnam War look good.

Another thing they are doing here that they did in Vietnam: killing people that don't agree with them. Apparently we killed 4 million civilians to get them on our side. You can imagine what is going on in Iraq.
