A hundred thousand Iraqis?
Who is the source here?
If it is all about numbers I have to ask:
How many lives saved because of the US intervention?
Saddam and his sons put out of business; a nationwide program administered by American forces aimed at inoculating all Iraqi children.
And don't forget - as much of Europe has - the incalculable price of freedom.
Do the math.
Tell us what you find...

jean colmar:
I have found economists to be far more amenable to new models and theories than the sentimental and discredited European Left, still railing against "the bourgeois" in their own countries, even as Japan passed them by.

Like a lot of stupid young Lefties in America the rioters (no, they're not "protesters") think someone somewhere, an obese plutocrat in a top hat, has "exported" to a "third world sweat shop" jobs their university profs and the lib media assured them will always be there for them.

Let Detroit build the kind of big ol honkin SUV and pick up trucks Americans like to drive and own.
Start drilling domestically. That alone adds hundreds of thousands of new jobs.
Lower the corporate tax rates in Michigan and Ohio, and then nationwide.
Get an economic wiz like Romney - a son of Michigan - to oversee the restructuring of the industry.

I have a tough time believing the same 'progressives' who want us all driving little eco-pixie mobiles are as worked up as they say they are, especially the ones from countries that have never even manufactured cars.

ultradude - good for you, and your wife.
But I still believe that as long as Obama, the former con law prof, refuses to release his true birth certificate he sends the message that he considers himself and his party above the law of the land.
Did you have to furnish a birth cert for your passport?
Would you want your taxes paying the salary of a federal employee at the issuing agency who didn't ask for it, but said, 'That's alright, I'll take your word that you are who you say you are and were born where and when you say.'

Kinda funny watching the same Poms who denounce US intervention in Iraq demand that their gov't remove Mugabe.
Britain no longer has the military might. They' d have to get the Aussies or the Canadians to do their dirty work.

smithinjapan:
"...then ask them about the hundreds of thousands of others killed since the US invasion began... or is it up to more now."
Inflated casualty figures and willful disregard for the findings of native Iraqi organizations is a dead giveaway with anyone who 'protests' the war/liberation of Iraq as much as smith does.
No one can simultaneously argue that (1) they 'care' about Iraqis and (2) that violent radical Islam is a non-threat, and then turn around and insist hundreds of thousands - millions even - have died in Iraq since 03.
Why do you need to believe in such outrageous amounts of carnage and misery?

Obama's Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel, also a product of the Chicago Machine, refuses to answer any questions about Blago Gate.
Imagine the hysteria if it were Rove.
Obama.
Worst President-elect ever...

Why so selective? Saudi is the largest exporter in the region. Exports to the US peaked in 02. China and India have picked up the slack.

Superlib is right. AQ relies on the overwhelmingly lefty media in America and Europe to act as force multiplier. Even worse, they know they can also count on the media to play up the numbers killed and maimed but limit any graphic display of the barbarism, as the NY Times and the major networks did on 9-11.
There are published studies on this sad state of affairs:
It's a macabre example of win-win in what economists call a "common-interest game," say Bruno S. Frey of the University of Zurich and Dominic Rohner of Cambridge University. * *"Both the media and terrorists benefit from terrorist incidents," their study contends. Terrorists get free publicity for themselves and their cause. The media, meanwhile, make money "as reports of terror attacks increase newspaper sales and the number of television viewers."
The researchers counted direct references to terrorism between 1998 and 2005 in the New York Times and Neue Zuercher Zeitung, a respected Swiss newspaper. They also collected data on terrorist attacks around the world during that period. Using a statistical procedure called the Granger Causality Test, they attempted to determine whether more coverage directly led to more attacks.
[...]
The results, they said, were unequivocal: Coverage caused more attacks, and attacks caused more coverage -- a mutually beneficial spiral of death that they say has increased because of a heightened interest in terrorism since Sept. 11, 2001.

muchakucha has written:
Osama was exiled from Saudi - the spiritual home of Islam. Like nearly all who belong to or follow the Muslim Brotherhood he believes the House of Saud has ro right to rule and act as stewards of Mecca.
What better way to get back at them by recruiting disaffected Saudi nationals for a suicide mission directed at the heart and brains of the most powerful nation in the world?
Bush stated clearly in the 2000 presidential debates that he wanted regime change in Iraq.

Liberating 50 million in Iraq and Afghanistan has created a lot of jealousy in hellholes of Islamic social engineering like Pakistan and Iran and Egypt.
