…Might I perchance recommend…

Dear BC,

Might you perchance grow a brain (or a pair) and not simply accept writings at a website with the initials MIT attached to it ?

Johns Hopkins did 2 studies on Iraqi deaths, one rather early on, one later. Both employed the statistical method of determining numbers of deaths by interviewing less than 1000 Iraqi households (I’m going on memory) and what householders “reported” and then (quite theoretically) multiplying that number to the population at large.

And they came up with wildly (and I mean wildly) exaggerated numbers of Iraqi deaths. For the consumption of LeftWing propaganda mongers, like yourself.

Iraq Body Count (the site I linked) should be LeftWing enough for your tastes. At least they’ve given accuracy a reasonable shot, unlike the stuff that, apparently, impresses you.

Love,
