New Study on Iraq War Deaths Estimates 24,000; Media SilentTim Worstall notes the hullaballoo that accompanied last year's estimate of 100,000, and wonders about the reason for the silence
regarding the new study.
He's right that the lefty bloggers, to the extent they will ever acknowledge this study (and I'm not holding my breath) will inevitably conclude that no amount of lives lost was worth it; just as they studiously deny that the death toll should be adjusted for the number of people Saddam would have killed in the last two years had he been left in power.
