that graph doesnt make any
that graph doesnt make any sense, the deaths start to go down, also by 2007 theres been more than 900 troops killed....
Stupid Americans
It is not the cumulative number of deaths. If you take the area under the curve, you'll get the total number of deaths.
Geesh.
The level of mathematical literacy in the US is truly appalling.
re: Stupid Americans
Fuck you
So according to this graph,
So according to this graph, in 2007 Exxon made $40,000 Billion dollars? That's 40 Trillion dollars! I have a hard time believing that when the entire US Federal budget is in the 3-4 Trillion dollar range.
illiterate anyone?
that's millions - not billions, einstein. so the correct assumption would be: 40 billion.
Interestingly, the popularity of the Democrats ...
also increases as US fatalities go up, perhaps their in on the grand conspiracy too?
Misleading and false
The right hand y-scale should be US$ _MILLIONS_ not BILLIONS.
Exxon-Mobil did not earn $40 trillion in profits, otherwise the war might actually be justified. $40 billion for the taxpayer and soldier cost is just pathetic.
This is retarded
First off, Exxon isn't making $40 trillion in profits you nunce.
Secondly, we all know that Iraq was about securing oil resources and we don't need some half-wit graph to prove it.
Jack Shit
That is what this graph shows. Anyone who takes anything out if it is honestly retarded.
