4. remember. they dont count all of them who died later

or who committed suicide later, or who committed suicide there.
and they dont count all the Iraqi civilians, who are dead and wounded, because they arent actually people to them.
In the meantime, no one had to die. No one had to be wounded, and none of this had to happen.
