#1: Who is funding this group that alleges this number of people were killed.

#2: I want to know their methodology in determining how many people were killed.

#3: I want to know how in the hell we are even discussing something that "estimates" between "5000 and 7000" died in the conflict. Well, 2000 is a pretty huge margin of error.

I don't doubt that civilians did die. But this is in my opinion statistical garbage being reported only because it is colorful and generates contraversy.

Well sure, these doctors can falsify their reports to make America look bad. But at the same time, if it is 10,000 + there has to be a way to take accountability for that (ethically speaking). I mean couple of thousands of casualities, ok.....but anything as high as what they are "estimating" should be raising eye-brows. I think it at least needs to be addressed, instead of being dismissed.
