That statistic is from the Baghdad morgue and the Iraqi Health Ministry.
It's a breaking story in the LA Times, among other places:

Iraqi civilians killed this year by Islamic Terrorists
3,148


Yes, it is also sad that we made Iraq into a killing field for al Qaeda
and sectarian violence. It didn't have to be that way. It's a result of
incompetence and negligence.


Wow! The LA Times? Well, there's an unbiased source for you. Why didn't you
go all out and quote the NY Times or Geraldo?


The information comes from the Baghdad morgue and the Iraqi Health
Ministry. The LA Times is merely reporting it.

BTW, The new Iraqi government is calling for a timetable for the
withdrawal of American troops. I couldn't agree more, and the sooner the
better.

he is doing a terrible job in almost all respects.

And, once again to clarify, I am not a conservative / republican.


You just called yourself a conservative, right up there. See?

So what are you?

Whatever GWB is, he isn't a conservative.

is that just another
symptom of the liberal dogma?

I am very willing to debate the war with anyone but please don't just spew
what you've read in the papers, liberal or conservative. Do the research
for
yourself and come to the table prepared.


I told you once. you are seriously undergunned in the logic department. I
do not think you want to go there.

And before anyone goes off half-cocked.


They have medicines so you can get full-cocked. I work in health care trust
me.

The global problem of Islamic terrorism has very little to do with who's
president or even America itself. And Iraq was an internal "killing field"
long before the U.S. got involved.


Iraq wasn't about global terrorism but since you must, what about the other
killing fields that we so conviently don't consider our issue? Oh, they
don't sit on a large crude oil deposit.

That these men and women [and children......everybody forgets the children] died...over 50,000 innocent Iraqi civilians killed....


And nobody grives....or mourns....or mentions them.....or knows their
names.

Wolfgang

Do you just find it convenient to forget the USS Cole, (Clinton)? The

It would help your case if you didn't "remember" bombings that didn't
happen or cite figures with no basis in fact.

In order to discuss this you have to be able to read. I did NOT say I was a
conservative. Read it again. I did not say "other conservatives".

I am a Libertarian.

Well excuse the hell out of me, Mr. Libertarian. Are you going to vote
Republican or Democrat in 2006?

Ummm...

Who said Iraq was about Global terrorism? Notice the "period" after the word
itself? You have to read rw's previous post. That sentence was a response to
his claim that we turned Iraq into a killing field. Which we did not. We
just added American casualties.

Do you folks truly believe Iraq was about oil? If so, can you tell me where
it's going since we've been there? Why didn't we attack Saudi Arabia? Far
more oil and certainly more valid political reasons to attack there.

P.S. Wayne, personnal attacks don't validate your political view. Show me
facts. I am a logical person. My opinions can change.

ARE YOU INSANE? Anyone else here want to back this guy up and claim that
the USS Cole or the embassy bombings in Mogadishu did not occur?

If you folks want to have a reasonable discussion fine. But this type of
claim just goes too far.
