Over 650,000 Iraqis Have Died as a Result of the War?
It's got to be liberal propaganda.
IT MUST BE liberal propaganda, because otherwise this would indicate that the US has instigated a mass slaughter of people close to the scale of the holocaust.
One even HOPES it is liberal propaganda.
But I fear it isn't.
UPDATE: Juan Cole is a must-read on this topic. Bottom line, the death statistics are highly plausible.

Are you always this gullible?
Wait....I can't believe I just asked that question on ol' Spook's blog. Of course you are.
Read the fucking article. I'd point out that even Anthony Cordesman said these are politically motivated numbers, but you wouldn't care.
That's why you will never be taken serioously by anyone of substance, Spook ol' buddy - because of your incredible bias against and hatred towards the Bush administration.
I have friends in the Bush Administration and I can tell you that not one single civilian has been killed in Iraq. Things are much better there now that we have toppled a dictator. The Free Iraqi people all love American Troops. Honestly, the war is going great! Cheney and Rumsfeld are geniuses. The Iraqi people invited us in, and they hope we stay forever. These reports of people trying to drive the Americans out are all just left-bloggers and freedom-haters. Sword of Truth and Conspiracy Smasher have volunteered to go to Iraq and fight, because they're brave and they support the War. Pinch knows that the real numbers are much lower than 600k. Only bad people die when the Americans drop bombs and DU. Really! I swear!

Pinch covered the absurdity of the 650,000 quite well.
But what caught my eye was Spook saying 650 thousand is "close to the holocaust".
Don't you know that the holocaust was TEN TIMES that number (that was just the jewish casualties) or are you a Hitler lover like your swastika-swinging buddy, KKKilltown?
As a Jew and a New Yorker let me tell you something. I'd rather have the number of Holocaust victims mistated 1000 times than see ONE more senseless death for GWB's War on Truth.
Maybe it's time to declare War on Idiocy here at home.
