46. Those bombings
would never have happened if the US did not invade and occupy Iraq. Those happenings were/are very much the fault of America.
I disagree with your analysis of deaths caused by resistance activity. If you really look at it, the terrorist bombings are actually quite minimal compared to resistance actions and US military attacks.

"But look at the amount of deaths contributed to by car bombs, roadside bombs, suicide bombers, and militants and one will notice that they heavily outweigh deaths contributed by the military."

That's wrong. Look at what the military has done to Falluja. Look at Shock and Awe. Look at the innumerable raids and strikes on Iraqi homes.
In any case, the only reason terrorist bombings can be carried out is because of the US invasion.
