Take a look at http://www.iraqbodycount.org/database/ it's one of the more accurate non biased databases. You don't see too many that say killed by US soldiers. However you see a hell of a lot that were killed by the insurgents.
The point of this topic was trying to make it look as if the US military had killed 35k civilians last year which is very far from the truth.

Hear ya crockett!
Well.. according to the iraqibodycount website - it appears the occupation forces never fired a shot in December or killed anyone? Duh? They might as well leave since there is no purpose in being there - they can't control the violence and they are the reason the whole shit started in the first place.
Sure.. agree - that 35K figure is not related to US military killings in particular.
