You didn't say "soley" But you did imply that it is mostly the Americans fault that these people died.
The old argument "if we were not there, they would still be alive" argument is old and not completely true.
But to be fair, and I always try to be fair, you did say you kept a tab on ALL the deaths, but then you gave yourself away by throwing in "bullshit" as if the lives and freedom of those who live there are not worth dying for. Props to you for seeing that the Iraqi is paying a heavy price for their freedom. I guess in a small simplistic way you could say we are like the French were to us during our revolution. They lost soldiers just like we are so that we could gain our freedom.
But this is not so simplistic as that. And simply calling the Battle of Iraq as "bullshit" is way to simplistic. And you know it.
