While your at it, care to explain what a casualty is? How do you come up with 10,000 casualties?
 
So this is your post care to explain to us how you know this as a fact.

Why do I have to explain what a casualty is? I mean, no ****, why?

I can explain the 10,000 for you. No problem.

9/11:

Killed -3017 + 24 presumed dead
Injured -6,291+

'93 WTC Attack:

Killed -6
Injured -1042

With me so far?

3, 017 + 6,291 = 9,308
6 + 1,042 = 1,048

Still with me? Ok, good.

9,308 + 1,048 = 10,356

Oh, I forgot the 24 presumed dead, so that makes it 10,380.

Hmm I dispute your fact care to compare notes,

9/11

Killed: 2,993 including the 19 Hijackers
MIA: 24
Injured:Between 4,500-5,000 Hard Number to actually pin point.

93 WTC Attack,

Killed: 6
Injured:766

The 1042 number has long been revieved and the Wiki Article is rather out of date.

So with that in mind the actual number is 8789 and this is from the CIA/FBI 9/11 Report which is part of the over all 9/11 report.

Hmm so everything you posted was during the period of the War when the Insurgent and US Force were fighting back and forth. As I ask can you provide the proof that you have witness these. And you still haven't been able to prove any fact that they would go back to be their Husban Slaves now have you.

Let's don't forget the folks who never reported any injuries. Not to mention all the PTSD cases that will go unreported and the folks who inhaled no-telling-what from the dust of the WTC. I bet the number could go up as high as 20 thousand.

Let's see some links for those numbers, too.

It would be more honest for you to just flat out say you do not like Arabs, and do not want Arabs in your lily-white view of America?

Out of ALL those casualties, how many were caused by Iraqis? On the other hand we have caused between:

[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_Family_Health_Survey"]Iraq Family Health Survey[/ame]: 151,000 violent deaths
[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lancet_surveys_of_Iraq_War_casualties"]Lancet survey[/ame]: 601,027 violent deaths out of 654,965 excess deaths
[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ORB_survey_of_Iraq_War_casualties"]Opinion Research Business survey[/ame]: 1,033,000 violent deaths as a result of the conflict.

So depending on how you look at it, we the U.S. have caused between 150,000 to 1,033,000 deaths as a result of our intervention. God I hope you are not a right to lifer.....

During my undergrad a couple of Iraqis were in one of my history classes. They said it was a breath of fresh air to be able to learn in an environment free of persecution.

The U.S. has no reason to fear these people, and if the Iraqi government is funding their exchange then so much the better. These people will come to the West, learn in free environments, and take that experience home with them.

The Iraqi gov. is announcing this so blissfully because at the current time it is in desperate need of positive press on its humanitarian efforts, given the recent crackdowns following the elections.

Iraq Plans to Send 10,000 Students to Colleges in U.S., Abroad - Local News | News Articles | National News | US News - FOXNews.com



WASHINGTON — Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki says his country plans to send up to 10,000 Iraqi students a year to colleges in the United States, Britain, Canada and Australia over the next five years as a part of a new scholarship program.

Al-Maliki says stability in Iraq has allowed the country to focus on education after years of war.

He says there's great ambition behind the new program "because our needs are great."

The Iraqi government is funding the scholarship program. It will allow students to earn bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees.

The country plans to start with about 500 students in U.S. and British schools this fall.


This is great news my only concern is who gets picked and how much the US is going to influance this process.

So the Iraqis were going to repay us for deposing Saddam ... when?

Most of them would apply for US citizenship, because they know that education would be useless when they got back to Iraq.

Despite the critic's moans and groans, Iraq does have a very grand probability for a future. And if Iraq has future where Muslims of all tribes have equal opportunity and religious rights and the ability to create and express peacefully, then the Middle East has a chance to grow beyond it's self prescribed restrictions and strangulations.

Education is the terrorist killer.

Some of the most educated Muslims in the world, are terrorists. Zawahriri is a doctor. The dudes that attack Glasgow station were doctors. Most of the 9/11 hi-jackers had been to college.

I disagree that education is a terrorist killer. five-five-six and seven-six-two are terrorist killers.

And it ensures we are able to influence and help educate a massive group of Iraqis who would be familiar with the West and not view us as enemies.
Sounds perfect. I love this idea personally

Didn't Londonstan start this way? Now GB needs millions of surveillance cameras everywhere just to prevent domestic terrorism.
 
No Labour wants cameras to control us better under the guise of preventing terrorism.

What fool believes that is beyond me.
