What is so hard for many among us to recognize and realize is that under Saddam Hussein, this was merely one isolated incident.

We are told that roughly 100,000 Iraqis have lost their lives since our invasion of Iraq, which is part of the war against terrorism. Perhaps - and how many would have lost their lives if we had not gone in there?

Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis have been slaughtered at the behest of this man; it's unreal to expect that it would have simply stopped.

They lump all the deaths together and so that really tells us nothing. How many were terrorists, how many killed by terrorists etc.
