I wasn't questioning your numbers, which seem specific enough, as much as your perceptions. Yes, Google News is a great thing -- it's where I get my information also. I still don't think I am getting the full story. I still question whether Iraqi casualties are even reported. Because nobody cares. Suicide bombers blow up a school, well, that's news, because it shows how unreasonable *they* are. It wouldn't even take censorship -- just a press afraid to leave the hotel without a military escort, and voila, the news is as the military says it is.
How can there ever be peace if everyone is too angry to talk? It all seems very sad. Just out of curiosity -- I promise not to start an argument over this as it seems we will not agree regardless -- do you really think that *some* is a needless qualification?
