What about the aproxomatly 2.2 million civilians dead under Saddam?
130,000 still seems way too high to be realistic, but I got no proof to dispute it.
Still, the whole 2.2 million under Saddam was a lot worse.
Say if you were an athlete for Iraq under THE BUTCHER, and you went to the olympics and you lost, Uiday (Saddams son) would bring you to an underground facility and torture you, before executing you, all because you couldn't jump jump as high as that Lithuanian dude.
Anyway you look at it, civilians are safer now than then, even with the insergency.
ADDITION:
whoops!
sry, didn't see the second page, thought you were still talking about casualties.
And a fact: only around 1% of Iraqies agree with insurgents, the "Majority" attacking us are terrorists from Afghanistan and new recruits from Syria and Saudi Arabia.
P.S. The protesting against terrorisms from the civilians started when they executed a woman aid worker on TV.
I remember seeing the women who was executed. That was very, very brutal.
And about Uiday torturing the Soccer team, He did not kill all of them, just a few. But, that is still very sick and cruel. The only th ing I don;t understand is how people can do some of the things that they can do....
