Iraq War Death Toll: 8,700 Iraqi Troops, 3,400 Iraqi Civilians

A new study by The Project on Defence Alternatives, based on field hospital data and US government reports, finds that approximately 13,000 Iraqis were killed in the US attack of March-April. A little less than a third of the dead, 3,400 or so, were noncombatants (i.e. persons who did not take up arms against the Anglo-American invading forces).
