Preliminary studies on civilian deaths in the U.S.-led war are estimating that between 5,000 and 10,000 civilians may have died — more than the 3,500 believed killed in the 1991 war, the Christian Science Monitor reports. And I wonder how many innocents were maimed. Still, the whereabouts of WMD's, Saddam amd Osama remain unknown. And al-Qaida remains active.Was it worth it? No, neither from an ethical nor an economic, nor a security stand point. posted by Craig 12:32 PM . . .
