Estimate Who...Estimate What...

Last time King George was asked about death estimates for Iraqis since his war, he guesstimated about 30,000. Everyone who heard his estimate and who at least had been keeping up with events in Iraq, knew that figure was quite modest to say the least. (You thought that didn't you?)
Well today, the results of a study on the deaths in Iraq was released. The study was overseen by epidemiologists at Johns Hopkins University's Bloomberg School of Public Health (Credible if you ask me) http://www.thelancet.com/webfiles/images/journals/lancet/s0140673606694919.pdf .The study indicates at least 655,000 people have been killed since we went of this foolish journey some call War. And folk still walking around wondering why those people hate us.
You can read an article on the study if you want, might have a slant to it though, http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/10/AR2006101001442_pf.html
I hear something calling, dayuuum it's my seminar paper seeking attention......ughhh....
