La escandalosa contabilizaciĂłn a la baja de los civiles muertos en Iraq
by Dirk Adriaensens on 27-03-2013
Cuando hablamos del nĂşmero de civiles muertos durante la ocupaciĂłn de Iraq de 2003 a 2013, serĂa una buena idea recurrir a los estudios cientĂficos de The Lancet, de la agencia Opinion Research Business [ORB] o incluso de la BBC para calcular el nĂşmero de vĂctimas de la guerra de Iraq. No deberĂamos utilizar los cálculos que publican los medios de comunicaciĂłn, como los de Iraq Body Count o Costs of War. Es una gran injusticia con los cientos de miles de vĂctimas iraquĂes de la catástrofe de Iraq. Cada muerte fruto de esta ocupaciĂłn ilegal deberĂa ser recordada, no sĂłlo la de los soldados de las fuerzas invasoras y ocupantes.
