iraq war opinion paper
16/f- I have to write a paper on my opinion (just or unjust?) on the current War in Iraq. Well, I am a total pacifist so naturally my opinion is that there is NO reason good enough to take another person's life, and I would rather live under an oppressionist government than kill someone for my freedom; therefore the war would be unjust. BUT, if the oppressionist power was killing citizens, then I would rather kill the people in power if that could prevent more lives lost. The problem is, for my paper, where can I find out how many total lives have been lost because of U.S. involvement? (Including Americans AND Middle Easterners) And where can I find out how many people are killed because of supposed terror regimes, sunni/shiite conflicts, the whole Sadam Hussain Kurd thing... ect. ect. I feel like I need these numbers to prove my point- (for ex.- If more American lives were lost capturing Sadam Hussain than he executed under his power, was it worth it? Also the same question vice-versa.) I cannot find this information because it is a current event- nobody is exactly clear on whats happening, and all news sources seem to be slanted one way or the other. Help me find good, clear sources please!!!! Where is this info availible?
