"We don't do body counts"

General Tommy Franks says, "We don't do body counts." Well, I do. So I searched the web and looked for Iraqi body counts. Total. It is hard to estimate.

Iraqi civilian deaths during "major combat" 2003 - 13,000 (wounded unknown)
Iraqi civilian death after "major combat" 2004 present - 3,274 (wounded 12,657)
US military deaths - 2035 and climbing each day
Britain military deaths - 97
Allied military deaths - 101
Canada military - 1
"International" civilians - 169

Total Iraqi deaths (another source) between 26,797 and 30,163

There are also contractors who serve as security, the so called mercenaries, who are not included.

Then there are deaths and injuries not reported.

So there is no way of keeping track accurately.

Lets say midpoint (average) is about 28,500 Iraqis, about 2,200 Allied soldiers. We are dealing with a baseline of at least 31,000 dead total, and that's a count (unreported deaths excluded). My own hunch is that it is much more. Not included are Iraqi combatants killed. I would say at least 50,000 deaths as my guesstimate.
