Yeah. That doesn't seem right. There are around 800,000 abortions a year in the US if I remember correctly. While the estimates of dead Iraqi's alone was like... a million. Though to be fair that number does seem greatly exagerrated as it counts lots of things like people missing... etc who you have no clue if they actually died during direct military measures.
Of course if your counting abortions you probably should count deaths that weren't caused directly by military means, but rather wouldn't of happened if we weren't there. Minus the ammount of deaths that would of occured under Sadam. Which is a tough thing to figure, since who knows what we would or wouldn't of done.
Then you've got to argue over whether enemy combatants count and Sadam counts etc.
Overall though i'd say that It'd take atleast a year for the abortion death count to beat all of iraq if you consider abortion murder.
Of course... if you actually do see an abortion as murder and every baby equal to a person i can't even see how someone could live in the country. I mean.. it'd be like the holocaust all over again in every pro-choice country... and the best most people do is hold the occasional rally and put obnoxious bumper stickers on their car. I mean shoot.
I mean... damn. Of course people stay though. The US is nice... I mean... what even is the nicest Pro-Life country in the world? El Salvador?
