Iraq Body Count

Fol­low­ing on from the dis­cus­sion in the com­ments below, Iraq​body​count.org are an inde­pen­dent, vol­un­tary organ­i­sa­tion who aim to estab­lish an accu­rate record of just how many people are being killed.

  1. Their meth­ods cer­tainly seem sound, but as their counter was stuck on 14 min/max dead for the first three days of the war, I didn’t check back…

  2. I per­son­ally hope that Saddam gets blown away. The guy is evil to the core. I am right behind the troops and give them all my support.

  3. I’m not exactly fond of him myself, Mr. Buff, but I don’t believe that killing other Iraqis is the best way to deal with him.

  4. The only reason we are killing “other Iraqis” is because we were not able to directly kill Saddam that first night. We may have mor­tally wounded him, and he may be dead now. But, until we know for sure, the hunt continues.

    The ref­or­ma­tion of Iraq is some­thing I am skep­ti­cal and wor­ried about. You can take the evil man out, but can you take the piety induced aggre­sion out of a nation, or even a region of sandy coun­tries? How about we find all the ref­er­ences to death and jus­tice in the bible, then ratio­nal­ize murder and geno­cide using it? It wouldnt be hard. To not do that is called Civ­i­liza­tion, as in Civilized-​Civilization.

    Dar­win­ism prevails.
