But yeah that's how retaliation works.
…you point a knife at me, you'll get shot.
I said it was an estimate range, the thing you quoted was one of many conflicting sources. I could easily pull one right now that said it was over a million and you would just facepalm whatever it says and not believe it anyway.
The point is we’re arguing over whether it was 300k or a million and meanwhile you’re trying to somehow justify that, but calling anyone else who killed a few dozen people a terrorist. The fact you don’t recognize the absurdity of your position tells me everything I need to know, and that arguing any further with you is literally pointless -

Originally posted by Kawkasian No, you said "The campaign in Iraq alone probably killed at least a million civilians. "
It was nowhere NEAR 1 million

Lancet survey counted 600,000 civilians in the first three years alone, without considering the US' tricks like counting any male under 35 as an 'enemy combatant' regardless of whether they were actually armed or in combat -

Regardless of what the direct combat deaths were, the total excess deaths caused by, again, a completely FAKE WAR with no justification whatsoever, were definitely over one million. So who fucking cares if they died from bullets or starvation, they were caused by the terrorist organization known as the United States. -

So not a million.
Civilians dying as a result of war isn't the same as directly targeting civilians

Killing people who use violence to further their political goals is killing terrorists. -

Originally posted by Kawkasian Well the discussion was regarding DIRECTLY targeting civilians..at least the one I was having was…
So your whole argument is it’s ok to kill at LEAST 300,000 people (but definitely over one million total war related deaths), as long as you aren’t specifically picking each and every brown face out of a crowd and purposely killing them, but it’s not ok to retaliate against a hostile power that has invaded your land and tortured and killed your people if that retaliation causes a few dozen to at most a couple hundred civilian deaths. Your moral compass here is obviously completely fucked -
