Official Numbers on Iraqi Casualties from U.S. Government?

Is this a first? The lat­est from the Spe­cial Inspec­tor Gen­eral for Iraq Recon­struc­tion (big pdf) gives a casu­alty num­ber of almost 100,000 Iraqi civil­ians to date, which may be the first time a U.S. gov­ern­ment body has released this information.

    I feel that it does not make much sense to keep fight­ing the war in Iraq. Every­thing that we mess up we have to re-build it so why keep fight­ing if we don’t have to. The casu­al­ties that are shown in this blog are deaths that could have been well avoided. Alot of money prob­lems should not be blamed on Obama but Bush.
