Key quotes: "13,000 civilians were killed directly by American and allied forces, and about 70,000 civilians died subsequently from war-related damage to medical facilities and supplies, the electric power grid, and the water system, she calculated." "In all, 40,000 Iraqi soldiers were killed in the conflict, she concluded, putting total Iraqi losses from the war and its aftermath at 158,000, including 86,194 men, 39,612 women, and 32,195 children." "Her final estimates were higher than her original ones: 205,500 Iraqis died in the war and postwar period, she believes today." "The American Statistical Association weighed in on behalf of her methodology." Source: Businessweek Online Spotted: 2/6/2002 Author: ? --SB |
