If one were to listen to the anti-war activists and America haters, Iraq was a mideastern version of Disneyland under Saddam's reign and over 1 million Iraqis have been killed by the murderous US and coalition soldiers.
The reporting on this has been exclusively slanted towards such insinuations we all know, but the report last week claiming the above throughout the world initially looked like the one below, where the culprits of these murders and killings have been the for the most part insurgents and terrorists, not the coalition forces.

KOTV.com - The News On 6: "VIENNA, Austria (AP) _ About 150,000 Iraqis have been killed by insurgents since the U.S.-led invasion more than three years ago, a senior Iraqi official said Thursday.I'll take his word over the word of the multitude of American hating anti-Iraq war journals like the Lancet or the words of the terrorists themselves.

In October, the British medical journal The Lancet published a controversial study contending nearly 655,000 Iraqis have died because of the war _ a far higher death toll than other estimates.
