re: 655000 dead in iraq: lancet.
yak, I don't think it's a matter of who has the higher moral ground, or who is on the left or the right. It's simply a matter that there were people of all persausions that could see that removing the hold that Saddam had on Iraq was going to unleash pent up forces that only he had the capability or will to contain. You didn't have to be Einstien to have foreseen that. I think the reaction you are seeing is that of people who can't tolerate fools.
