oooh...that's gotta hurt!

I admit, after doing some of my own research I was wrong. even tony blair said that number was an exaggeration. they are still in the process of digging up the graves which will take years, and many more will be found. there have been 10s of thousands of people found so far. many more to come.

maybe try debating like a normal human being, although it may be very difiicult for you

Whatever gets you through the day. But I will repeat myself: In war there are as often as not no bodies available to count, especially with todays modern weapons being used.

I dont disagree with you. but i'm not going to say 655,000 people have died. thats just a number you and others use as fact to get across your point that bush is the biggest mass murderist in the history of the world. i'm much more realistic about it.

the 9/11 reference was used as an example. not to link iraq and 9/11 together. sorry you couldnt figure that out.

So then you could just as easily have quoted the death toll from the U.S invasion of Panama instead, or the U.S bombing of the Sudanese medical facility, for example? But you chose 9/11. Interesting. Anyone would think that 9/11 is the only crime in history worth mentioning.

Didn't you know Byrnzie, that the genesis of all thats wrong with this world was 9/11. That's when the clock started.

In other news, I see that Augusto Pinochet is about to be formally arrested for crimes he committed in the 1970's after he was basically installed by the Americans at the time. To paraphrase one article I read recently, it's unlikely he would ever have been put in power were it not for the support of the U.S. gov't. Lets see, how many people did he torture or kill......I wanna make sure I get this perfectly correct. You know people and their numbers......

No, but some accountability about what it IS responsible for would be a good start.

I never said that bush is the biggest mass murderist in the history of the world, I said he was the biggest mass murderer in America since his Dad.

It certainly seems that more than a few people believe this. Like 9/11 occured out of a vacuum in history.
