Your numbers are based on feeble projection; forecast as to what might have happen if Iraq had been left undistributed. As any statistician can tell you, projection, or forecast, are notoriously unreliable. Also, the further you try to forecast into the future, the greater become the uncertainty of the results.
Your numbers come from projections over a four year period which you try to measure what what might have happen should Saddam been left in power. Further, you projections are easily manipulated toward your biases, both conscience and subconscience, and I doubt you could even tell me the underlying assumption and statistical method used to compute your projected number of deaths. My figures will come from recorded history as to what really happen, how many people really died, their names, ages, occupations, etc, what the psychological ramification of this unnecessary war will be to both America and Iraq, the real financial cost to Iraq, America, and the rest of the world because of the unnecessary war with Iraq, which has become an American fiasco and made joke our of America to the rest of the world.
