All of them. Every one of the enemy. That's how many dead. Why is that so difficult to understand? That's how you win a war. You kill or capture the enemy until they can no longer field an army, or perform attacks against us.

And yet it is working: Http://www.theotheriraq.com
Now, when was the last time appeasement worked? When was the last time bailing out on an ally when they needed us work?
We stepped in and overthrew an evil dictator that repeatedly was breaking his treaty with us. We then allowed the Iraqi people to form a new Government. We stood by and assisted while millions voted for the first time. While snipers shot at them, insurgents threatened them, and car bombs went off around them millions went to the voting booths.
Three very distinct religious and ethnic groups are attempting to form a Democracy in a region where Democracy is a foreign concept.
How many years did the newly formed Democracy of the United States take to form? Google the Articles of Confederation, for instance.
The Middle East isn't contained in a microwave. We can't push the popcorn button, wait two minutes, then say "ok, it's done".
Btw, the negative reporting about Iraq is fueling the insurgency and getting American soldiers killed and wounded, according to a recent Harvard study. http://www.usnews.com/articles/news/...reporting.html
Maybe, just maybe, if America would have said with one voice "We will not be defeated" from the moment we went into Iraq then maybe the war in Iraq would be over by now and fewer US and allied soldiers would have been injured and killed.
