"Rather than teasing apart who, what, or when is to blame, this report shows that the post-9/11 wars are implicated in many kinds of deaths, making clear that the impacts of war's ongoing violence are so vast and complex that they are unquantifiable."
Did this writer or anyone in this thread actually read the paper?
It basically repeatedly says every few paragraphs that the numbers quoted are only tip of the iceberg of suffering.
Tell us, what do YOU think this is saying?
It doesn't matter how complicated shit got, the US still kicked everything off.
