[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 5594414, member: 48469"] That little turd says the report assigns blame to the US. It does not. It's talking about all wars in North Africa and the Middle East over the last 22 years. And it includes indirect deaths. Nice try though, comrade. [URL='https://thehill.com/policy/defense/4006281-post-9-11-wars-death-toll-estimated-at-4-5m/']Post-9/11 wars’ death toll estimated at 4.5M | The Hill[/URL] "At least 4.5 million people have died as a consequence of wars that have raged across North Africa and the Middle East since the 9/11 attacks on U.S. soil in 2001, according to [URL='https://watson.brown.edu/costsofwar/papers/2023/IndirectDeaths']new research[/URL] from the Costs of War project at Brown University’s Watson Institute." ------ "The Cost of War project conservatively estimated up to 3.6 million indirect deaths from the post-9/11 wars, caused by economic collapse, food insecurity, destruction of public health facilities, environmental contamination, and recurring violence." ------ "The project does not ascribe blame to a country because the wars in the Middle East and Africa have involved multiple warring parties, rival nations and complicated geopolitics."
