Well, T, excuse me. The source given above, as I pointed out, does in fact "estimate", using an earlier "rigorous cluster study" as a baseline, that the total deaths are over one million.

The Lancet study which first came up with the baseline figure was heavily flamed by people who dreamed of war but not of the horrors of it.

I do not know of any better estimate, given the chaos of war.

But as Bobert says, go to the page and argue with them about their methods.

I am truly sorry that you relish war so much, but that is your worry.
