BAQUBA, Jun 2 (IPS) - The real number of the dead is far higher than even the highest declared in death tolls.

Just Foreign Policy, an independent organisation "dedicated to reforming U.S. foreign policy" offered an updated total of 1,213,716 at the time of this writing.
Independent group dedicated to reforming U.S foreign policy????????????? Would even a libturd take this group seriously?
Excuse me let me throw in something from another independent group dedicated to reforming U.S foreign policy Aljeezra. This study appeared on the Aljeera.english.net website.

About 151,000 civilians were killed between March 2003 and June 2006 in Iraq, following the US-led invasion, a World Health Organisation (WHO) study has found
The new study, published on Wednesday, is the most comprehensive since the war started
It drew on an Iraqi health ministry survey of nearly 10,000 households, five times the number of those interviewed in a disputed study by John Hopkins University in 2006, which said more than 600,000 Iraqis had died in the three-year period.
Okay this study drew on five times as many households as the discredited John Hopkins University study did.
Now I do realize it is June 2008 but I think even a libturd would be hard stretched to conclude 1.1 million people have died since June 2006 when according to a WHO study 151,000 died in the first 3 years of the war.
Surely there isn't a libturd alive who would believe Aljeezra would try to spew pro America rhetoric. What does Aljeezra and the US mainstream liberal media have in common, they are both anti US.; 9:16 PM
