I should have thought of that site for comparison, thanks Thomas. Yes, they have a sound approach and I also trust their numbers. The only quibble I have with them that I do not see, even in the small print, whether they count the suicide bomber also among civilian deaths. And I'd like to see a note how many of the civilian deaths are insurgents. I neither do believe that the US airstrikes always hits innocents nor that they never kill innocents.
