I think it's a small price to pay for the removal of a tyrant.
What is the body count of a tyranny? Argentina's military
dictatorship of the 70s had a body count like that.
And Iraq is so much better off now?
Anyway, the point of the editorial is about the profits, not the body count.
"War is a racket" -- Major General Smedley Butler. And it just keeps

"War is good business." -- General "Bull" Wright (Dan Rowan).
-- Ronn! :)
