Death toll in Iraq so far this year.....is this number correct?

From CNN article

www.cnn.com...

The bombing is the latest in a series of attacks in the nation that have killed more than 200 people this year.

This story was posted this morning the 27th of Jan.
More than 200 in 26 days.

Now that the US forces are gone, they are killing roughly 7.7 people per day.

I admit I don't follow this every day, but is this number correct?

I wonder what the number of people killed here in the states is on a daily basis? That would give us something to go off of.

Now the civil war has begun.

As for the count rate this is a seventh of the daily death toll in South Africa where there is a minimum of 50 murders / day. According to Rense.com the death toll is more.

With all the D.U. contaminating the water table, every Iraqi will be dead in 10-20 years with cancer thanks to USA. So 7-8 murders a day isn't going to make much difference, is it ?

yes, but Iraq is not that big of a country compared to the US.

If you look at it per capita I would imagine their rate is well above the US rate.

Yes, the Sunnis and Shiites are at it again. It will never end.

Fears of renewed sectarian conflict in Iraq have increased since U.S. troops withdrew in December and Maliki’s Shiite-led government sought the arrest of a Sunni vice president on accusations he ran death squads.

Maliki’s government denies it has a sectarian agenda, but the arrest warrant threatens to wreck a fragile ruling coalition that led to Sunni and Kurdish groups joining Maliki’s cabinet.

....and that's not even counting the number of executions that have been taking place over there.


U.N. rights chief shocked at numerous Iraq executions, says number is "terrifying"

The top United Nations human rights official criticized Iraq on Tuesday for carrying out a large number of executions, including 34 on a single day last week, and voiced concern about due process and the fairness of trials.

The Zionist plan goes all the way back to the 1970's after the surprise attack on Israel in 1973.

Israel took and asskicking and would have lost the war if they would not have begged for help from Uncle Sam.

After that shock to the Zionist scum leadership they decided they had to destroy every Arab / Muslim country in the world that had even a chance of challenging them.

The destruction of Iraq has long been a goal of Israel. Anyone can search around the net and find the Israeli plan that called for splitting Iraq into three smaller countries.

The Zionists were determined to split Sudan as well and have managed that.

They are working on destroying Pakistan and they have damn near ruined Lebanon beyond repair.

Oh and by the way, using the US like a mule, is destroying the US and Zionism will split it into sub countries as well.

Zionism is pure evil

Yes but this country isn't at war and it has police everywhere and we are higher. Think about it.

We've been bombing that country since I was in the 5th grade. Even Clinton had desert foz, remember that? I'm now 33 years old so that should give you a nice timeline.

Yes, but we are not there now.

I would have expected the death rate to drop slightly once US forces are gone.

Dude, they executed 34 people in one day.....and people think Texas is bad....not even close.

Who told you we're not in Iraq????

Jacob Schiff financed the Japanese military build-up prior to the Russo-Japanese War at the very beginning of the 20th century to punish Russia for not going to war with the Ottoman Empire to take over the Middle East and give Palestine to the Zionists.

The "son" of the Japanese militarism financed by Zionism attacked Peal Harbor roughly forty years later.

If you don't think Zionism caused both WWI and WWII you (I don't mean you MentalData, because I think you get it) just have not read enough of the real history you are never going to learn in school since Zionists control everything we think, say and do.

The Zionists financed the 1917 Russian Revolution. That is a pure fact.

Leon Trotsky (real name Lev David Bronstein) was not in New York in 1917 for the bagels.

The Zionists destroyed the Russian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the British Empire.

Now they are working on destroying the American Empire after they built it.

Wake up. Read real history. See the big picture.

Zionism is the problem

I'm talking about ground troops. Not CIA or military advisers.

Our ground troops have been pulled out.

Now the civil war has begun.

The civil war has begun? Are you kidding? Back in 2006, there was 100+ people killed EVERY DAY in Iraq when they were in quasi-civil war.

Remember this?
2006 al-Askari Mosque bombing

The bombing was followed by retaliatory violence with over a hundred dead bodies being found the next day[1] and well over 1,000 people killed in the days following the bombing – by some counts, over 1,000 on the first day alone.

7 a day is nothing.

Let's do a bunch of maths.

Back in 1991, there were 24 700 murders in the US. Now if you adjust to the Iraqi population back in 91, that makes the US death rate to 4.83/day.

If, by your maths, Iraq is in civil war with 7.7 dead/day, then at 4.83, the US was NEARLY in civil war, right?

Is a US taxpayer paid for mercenary subject to no American law, no Iraqi law and no international law considered a ground troop in your world?

Imagine - going into a town of 10,000 people in the US, kille 1,000 people, injure 2,000, destroy 1,000 homes, disrupt all government, culture, schools and every f***ing thing for 10 years then pull out and...

scratch you head because 7 people per day are killed.

The plan has not gone off the track. The Zionist plan was to destroy Iraq and they are not finished the job.

That would be a contractor, not a US soldier.

They exist in South America as well, but they are not on government payroll, they work for private companies.

You must not be aware of the amount of bases we have on the Iraq/Iran border. They have gone nowhere. defense contractors or U.S. soldiers we are footing that bill and there's no end in sight. Same difference.

OP, what about the death toll in Mexico?

40 000+ dead in the last 5 years.

40 000 dead over 5 years = 21.9 dead/day... and still no reports in the news about Mexico being in civil war.

Military advisors...you gotta love this stuff we're fed. They are about to invade Iran, you think we would abandon strategic position on that border? Look up U.S military bases in the middle east, how would you be sitting in you were Iran right now??
