Default USA kills MORE Iraqi civilians than Sadam ever did

Well done USA - I am sure that the world is very proud of your criminal illegal foreign policy and your supremely moral and intelligent leader

912,786 Iraqi civilians killed by US bombs and military actions

Sadam Hussein was tried and found guilty of killing 140 people in the early 1980,s - and executed

And who was funding the Sadam Hussein regime during his reign?

GEE I WONDER WHICH NATION DID THAT - AND ALSO FUNDED AND SET UP AL QAEDA?

what you sow you will reap you illegal criminal corporate clowns

GOD is waching!

You're obvioulsy referencing a specific link/estimate with that number.

you REFUSED my request for a Link FOOLosophy.

That number is a Wildly High ESTIMATE.. and no matter what the number- the vast majority are INTRA-Arab killings.

Something you also haven't shown/proved.. who killed who.

IraqBodycount, no right-wingers, has the number at 83,000--90,000. http://www.iraqbodycount.org/

More incredible yet, you Foolosophist, is your Dopey assertion of Saddam's 140 Deaths.

People fail to realise that the people Saddam was killing were innocent. They weren't terrorists or fascists or extremists like the people america kills every day..

That that you have to point that out saddens me greatly. Unfortunately, I find more and more that it is actually necessary to go out of my way to make sure people realize this.

Yes also the way he presented the information was stupid

The USA has been tried and found guilty of 0.

Like i.beletesri said its a wildy high estimate. But even then Saddam has managed to kill more we know that he killed:

*At least 150,000 iraqi and at least 450,000 iranian combatants in the iraq-iran war.
*At least 1,000 Kuwaiti in the invasion of Kuwait.
*Over 100,000 kurds killed or 'disappeared'
*At least 60,000 Iraqi dissidents and Shia Muslims killed during Hussein's reign.
*Approximately 500,000 Iraqi children dead because of international trade sanctions introduced following the Gulf War.

That stacks up to a minimum of over 1.2 million. (Using the same parameters foolosophy judges america by)

But since the invasion of Iraq, has the US killed more Iraqi civilians than Saddam did during his reign of power?

I think they may have.

I wouldn't call the people the US are killing civilians there not going around home to home shooting random people there attacking those who attack them aswell as terrorists who only wish to cause harm to the real civilians of iraq.

I consider a civilian to be someone who doesn't carry a gun or a bomb. There have been hundreds of thousands of innocent people killed since the Iraqi invasion - people who never did anything wrong.

I imagine there are more people killed by US forces than killed by Saddam, but that's just a guess, I don't have any official estimate...
