"It's not offically a war??" If bombing the entire country with over 100 cruise missles ain't war, what the heck is? No wonder we keep ended up in all the conflicts (wars). Washington can't figure out what war is!!In how many wars was the US directly attacked by another nation?....The Mexican American war and when Japan attached Pearl Harbor....those are the only two constitutional wars I can think of....and the Mexican American war is very shady at best...in fact...one could argue we invaded Mexico...for u.s. and the united nations puppets,,,everything is legal.they can swallow the small countries.Gaddafi is protecting his sovereignty from the armed rebel with an al-Qaeda elements while USA invade Iraq and Afghanistan and kill thousands of civilians there,they are not protecting their sovereignty from rebel rather they invade a nation that didn't attack them.The thousand of Iraqis civilians that killed in their invasion,did the UN,NATO and the allies ask the US why or invade US to stop the civilian killing in Iraq ? ,then why the UN,NATO US and their allies invading and bombing Libiya with the signatory of the United Nations ( Nonsense Nations " Disintegrated Nations ).I guess Gaddafi is not a mad dog as they call him rather the United Nations ( Nonsense Nations " Disintegrated Nations ) is the mad dog

Iraq Body Count project

An independent U.K./U.S. group, the IBC project compiles "reported" Iraqi civilian deaths resulting from the invasion and occupation, including those caused directly by coalition military action, those caused directly by the Iraqi insurgency, and those resulting from excess crime (the IBC project asserts that the Occupying Authority[clarification needed] is responsible to prevent these deaths under international law). It shows a minimum of 99,004 and a maximum of 108,076 as of December 2, 2010.[13]

This total represents civilian deaths that have been reported by media organizations, non-governmental-organization-based reports, and official records.[14] The IBC project has been criticized by some who believe it counts only a small percentage of the number of actual deaths because it only includes deaths reported by respected media agencies.[25][110] The IBC project's director, John Sloboda, has stated, "We've always said our work is an undercount, you can't possibly expect that a media-based analysis will get all the deaths."[111] However, the IBC project rejects many of these criticisms as exaggerated or misinformed.[112]

Following are the yearly IBC project civilian-death totals[13] (as of December 2, 2010):

Year Civilian deaths
2003 12,079
2004 10,834
2005 15,034
2006 27,850
2007 24,677
2008 9,245
2009 4,681
2010 3,576

Concerning the yearly totals, IBC project states: "All figures are taken from the "maximum" confirmed deaths in the IBC database. However, IBC's rates and counts will rise over the coming months, as data is still being added to the IBC database for 2006 and other periods covered here."[113]

The IBC project released a report detailing the deaths it recorded between March 2003 and March 2005[72] in which it recorded 24,865 civilian deaths. The report says the U.S. and its allies were responsible for the largest share (37%) of the 24,865 deaths. The remaining deaths were attributed to anti-occupations forces (9%), crime (36%) and unknown agents (11%). It also lists the primary sources used by the media — mortuaries, medics, Iraqi officials, eyewitnesses, police, relatives, U.S.-coalition, journalists, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), friends/associates and other.
