Johns Hopkins/Lancet pull another number out of their asses.
Latest "calculation" on Iraq deaths: 655,000!
By the researcher's own admission, these studies are timed for the elections.
No other group comes within a fraction of this number. Not the United Nations. Not the Iraqi Health Ministry. Not IraqBodyCount. Yet I can guarantee you that this ridiculous number will be carved in granite here and elsewhere in two weeks.
According to the numbers, coalition forces alone have managed to kill over 200,000 Iraqi civilians in less than four years.
