It doesn't matter how many were killed by the US and how many killed by fellow Iraqi's the final number will be combined and attributed to the Americans for starting the war. Because in the end we will lose Iraq. Even if it semi stable when we leave the odds of it staying that way are slim. Therefore as the Anti-American contingent starts vying for power they will provide numbers and attribute them all to the War, which was started by the US. We can't win this one.
