10,000 IS a high figure. That's 10,000 innocent children, women, men, elderly and the disabled. To me, even 1 life is a high-number, but no war is perfect right. But whatever.
And about the 10,000....it's hypothetical and I'm only going by what the article was estimating. But you are right, I don't know the real figures.

By historical standards, 10,000 is a low number for a conflict of this scale.
I posted this before, and I'll post it again. Its intellectually dishonest to criticize the US for civilans who were killed without also praising the US for the civilians who were spared from the Baathists. Its two sides of the same coin.
