Interesting fact I heard last night at bookstudy, more people have died in the war against terror than in the original 9/11 attacks. Was fitting for the bookstudy lesson
Uh probably a few million at least have been killed worldwide.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_on_terror#Casualties
Victims of terrorist attacks
4,319
Killed in the war on terrorism
92,469 on both sides
Does that count civilians? I heard tens of thousands died in Iraq alone.
check the link, i dunno
I guess it implies civilians, since 9/11 were all civilians. I figured with all the bombings from military campaigns, more civilians would have died.
92k people is still a LOT..
to put it into perspective, when they nuked Hiroshima, only 80k people died from the initial blast.
Yeah it is alot.
Craziness...Imagine having to be part of the crew that cleaned up the mess...Wow...
Oh ok, I think I mistated... I think the actual statistic I'm talking about is how many soldiers of US died in battle for war on terror compared to civilians died on 9/11. Which is even more ridiculous statistic I think personally.
