So when you say that "...we have taken the lives of nearly 100,000 Innocent Iraqi civilians," I must object. You're using a very loose definition of "we." The US military didn't kill those people.

I guess the question there is, would those people still be alive if we hadn't invaded?
On another note, had we reacted internally in a different way, we may very well be in a different place economically than we are now.
