Stop lying and check again
Dr Gideon Polya currently teaches science students at a major Australian university. He published some 130 works in a 5 decade scientific career, most recently a huge pharmacological reference text "Biochemical Targets of Plant Bioactive Compounds" (CRC Press/Taylor & Francis, New York & London , 2003). He has recently published “Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950” (G.M. Polya, Melbourne, 2007: globalbodycount.blogspot.com... ); see also his contributions “Australian complicity in Iraq mass mortality” in “Lies, Deep Fries & Statistics” (edited by Robyn Williams, ABC Books, Sydney, 2007): www.abc.net.au... ) and “Ongoing Palestinian Genocide” in “The Plight of the Palestinians (edited by William Cook, Palgrave Macmillan, London, 2010: mwcnews.net... ). He has just published a revised and updated 2008 version of his 1998 book “Jane Austen and the Black Hole of British History” (see: janeaustenand.blogspot.com... ) as biofuel-, globalization- and climate-driven global food price increases threaten a greater famine catastrophe than the man-made famine in British-ruled India that killed 6-7 million Indians in the “forgotten” World War 2 Bengal Famine (see recent BBC broadcast involving Dr Polya, Economics Nobel Laureate Professor Amartya Sen and others: www.open2.net... bengalfamine_programme.html ).
Contact La Trobe university. His papers are peer reviewed.

Yes. So?What evidence do you have that he's wrong? He's given some incredibly good evidence.

I don't want to get into a pissing contest but does that figure not make you question things? 18 Billion? That is more people than have ever lived on the planet........
And sorry for going back off topic but i have to ask that.......

I do read history, Indian included. Now the Indian estimate of 150-200 million over the period of around 200 years seems far more accurate to me, still wrong of course no matter if it was 1 or 100 million, but that at least seems mathematically possible.
Attributing all the famines and disease outbreaks to colonial rule is where this all breaks down, we don't cause famines by killing off all the local food supply (unlike Americans killing off the buffalo) nor do we initiate disease (unlike the Americans giving small pox infected blankets to the native Americans)
The UK was never interested in genocide, it was interested in resources and wealth, its policy was to" make the world England" to introduce British law (English law as it was seen then) and to rule over it, people are resources and we have never tried to decimate an indigenous population, although we would violently put down any opposition to that rule. After all if you kill everyone you have no one to tax..
