acording to that theres only 24000+.. not 100000.. so my appologies.. you must be counting the dumb asses that suicide bonb there own people to... my bad... 🙄
At October 2004, health experts estimated the death toll at 100,000.

Anyway, quibbling over whether the Iraq deaths is 100000 or 24000 is like quibbling over whether the 9/11 deaths was 6000 or minus 70000

No. I don't bet.
You may not be aware of it, but you do bet. Life is a series of wagers. You wouldn't put time and effort into this little campaign of yours unless you expect something out of it. If you don't get the result you want, you've already lost a bet, whether you take my bet or not.

I win either way. I've introduced the idea of virtual global rallies. You'd be lucky to get a one hundred thousand people at a physical rally and widespread media coverage ... but what about ten million at a virtual global rally that also gets much more media coverage ?!
