I totally agree with you KT. All claims should be checked for its credibility. But if Americans don't investigate those claims, and we let others do it, we will always speculate its validity.

I don't really even know why we need to worry about it. The Iraqi people (unfortunately) had to ultimately pay a serious price for their freedom -- as have many peoples in times of political upheaval. I'm sure that we accidently killed French civilians in WWII. I'm positive we killed MANY more than 10,000 civilians in Germany when we liberated them from Hitler. They're not entitled anything from us for this. We've paid for their freedom with the lives of our young people. How about they pay us back for that?
It would be nice to have a true and accurate number of civilian casualties. But I don't think it's any kind of priority to anyone of note for any other purpose than being fodder for propaganda. There are much more important things to dedicate resources to in Iraq. This falls waaay down on the list of priorities.
