From TheWashintonPost: The major wars the United States has fought since the surrender of Japan in 1945 — in Korea, Indochina, Iraq and Afghanistan — have produced colossal carnage. For most of them, we do not have an accurate sense of how many people died, but a conservative estimate is at least 6 million civilians.

This inattention to civilian deaths in America’s wars isn’t unique to Iraq. There’s little evidence that the American public gives much thought to the people who live in the nations where our military interventions take place.

We consider ourselves a generous and compassionate nation but our concern for the victims is limited to U.S. troops. The wars in Korea and Indochina were extremely deadly. While estimates of Korean War deaths are mainly guesswork, the three-year conflict is widely believed to have taken 3 million lives, about half of them civilians.

Indeed, each atrocity that fails to alter public opinion piles on to further prove American indifference. When the wars went badly and violence escalated, Americans tended to ignore or even blame the victims.

The war in Vietnam and the spillover conflicts in Laos and Cambodia were even more lethal. These numbers are also hard to pin down, although by several scholarly estimates, Vietnamese military and civilian deaths ranged from 1.5 million to 3.8 million, with the U.S.-led campaign in Cambodia resulting in 600,000 to 800,000 deaths, and Laotian war mortality estimated at about 1 million.

The war in Afghanistan has been far less violent than the others, with civilian and military deaths estimated at about 100,000.

Please Gerry

IT IS EXACTLY TRUE THAT WWII AXIS*/VIETMAN/KOREAN WAR LOOSERS HAVE BECOME RICH DURING 'REBUILDING'

AND THAT THESE PEOPLE'S CHILDREN ARE BEING PUT ABOVE INFRONT OF AND CUT-IN-LINE TO PEOPLE WHO WERE FORCED TO SET ASIDE THEIR PRODUCTIVE LIVES TO FEND OFF ATTACKS

OBAMA IS TRYING TO GIVE AMERICA'S WEALTH THE THE CHILDREN/FAMILIES WHO EARNED POVERTY BY LOOSING WAR AND BEING HOSTILE - AND SHOULD BE KEPT POOR - IT IS SIMPLY THEIR PLACE THAT THEY HAD EARNED

IN FAIRFAX - THERE ARE SUCH PEOPLE BEING GIVEN GOV JOBS. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR OF FX CO BOARD MEMEBERS.

* who attempted to take over the world with violence that USA rejected to use until attacked, plus they lost

* who are now posing as democrats claiming usa is hostile: one lie after another

through grants, aid programs, racial lawsuits,

these people have become rich (either by business or $$ gov jobs) and had many generations of kids in USA

while some families who fought them off were continually PENALIZED and still 2nd generation

MEANING - ALL THINGS BEING EQUAL - democrat areas have become areas where those who owed WWII korea vietnam debts have become in charge of families they had attacked and also taken their land

a turf war run by corrupt politicians

The American soldier knows full well there are no WMDs (Weapon of Mass Destruction). He knows the UN (United Nations) has declared the war illegal. He knows Syria is no threat to the USA. He knows the USA attacked Syria, a tiny unarmed country, without provocation. He knows full well Americans are killing more children than adults. He knows about the atrocities and torture committed by Americans. He knows he is not defending America; he is fighting a war of aggression on her behalf. He knows the war in not about Assad but about oil.

Sources show Americans have been butchering Iraqis like fish in a barrel.

Americans have killed over a million civilians, mostly children in Iraq. This is the only peer-reviewed scientific statistic of the war. Politicians have tried to deny it, but the figure still stands. As science, it cannot be dismissed.

That makes them terrorists, whether you approve of that action or not. This makes the American soldiers in Iraq international war criminals and also criminals under American law. Had Hitler won WWII (World War II), prosecuting he Nazis would have been much delayed. Similarly, since America is so militarily powerful, it will be hard effect mass prosecution. Only a few lesser lights who stray outside the protection of the USA will be nailed to start. Germany has already started prosecuting. Consider that some Nazis were not prosecuted until they were in their 90s. The political balance of power could change substantially over the next 70 years. Americans involved in the terrorism cannot count on perpetual protection.

I have received emails from many Americans utterly convinced that Americans have killed no civilians in Iraq. If anyone did it, in their view, it must have been someone else. Americans are Boy Scouts, the good guys. They could not possibly have done such a thing. Any evidence to the contrary must be lies. Any photos of the alleged evil deeds must be fakes. That does not pass the laugh test. Consider:

America has spent a trillion dollars, (that’s forty-thousand dollars per Iraqi man, woman and child) to force them to surrender. That’s one heck of a lot of mayhem.
America has the biggest and most advanced military on earth. It has been pounding Iraq since 2003, longer than WWII, and still the Iraqis will not surrender and hand over control of their natural resources (mostly oil) to the Americans.
As part of a successful divide and conquer policy, Americans fomented friction between Kurds, Sunnis and Shia and fomented a civil war. They provided arms to feed it. They are thus responsible.

Terrorists are people who kill civilians to browbeat them into changing their politics.

Clinton signed the Iraq Liberation Act in 1998. Then Bush took over and the rest is history.

29,200 bombs and missiles were used on Iraq in the first month. Killing tens of thousands of civilians in 2003 March.

Epidemiologists estimated 650,000 Iraqi deaths by 2006 and by 2008 that figure would reach over a million dead.

Air strikes on villages and buildings full of people. Fallujah was declared a "free fire zone" and then thousands of civilians were killed.

US occupation deliberately targeted Sunni Muslims killing over ten percent of Sunnis and driving most out of their homes, clear genocide.

If Bush was not bad enough, Barak Obama took over and added drones to the already grueling checklist of US war crimes. The US has never paid war reparations to Iraq for aggression, genocide or war crimes.

US soldiers in addition to humiliating Iraqi soldiers, now carry out dead-checking, killing wounded fighters and civilians.

360 degree rotational fire on streets with civilians by US soldiers is a daily occurrence.
