What a shame! the #'s for those civilian deaths are even lower than the mainstream said they were a few years ago! There have been reports directly from doctors/scientists in Iraq putting the # of civilian casualties over a million.

The church service remembers the British dead, but not the Iraqi dead. Are Iraqi human beings of lesser value than British human beings? The "Archbishop" of Canterbury might have to explain that reasoning one day.
