25,000
A new study reveals 25,000 civilians have "died violently" in Iraq since the US invasion. There was a report a while ago that said up to 100,000 civilians had died... or not. Perhaps I'm remembering that incorrectly, but I didn't think so. Anyway, the 25,000 number would also be seen by some as conservative, was the point I was going to make. It's not hard to imagine, given that an average of 800 Iraqis, civilians and police, die every month in suicide bombings, according to something I read yesterday.the earley edition - Posted by Dave @ 7/20/2005 12:41:00 am || ||
