The death toll of the war on Iraq is much higher than even the most gloomy estimates. That is the conclusion of the most extensive study made of the country to date.

A survey published by the Lancet medical journal has discovered that over 650,000 Iraqis have died as a result of the occupation. The findings were dismissed by George Bush, who poured scorn on the validity of the research.

Richard Horton, the editor of the Lancet, said “This shows how superficial Bush’s thinking is on this issue.”

The study, The Human Cost of the War in Iraq, follows a smaller survey conducted in 2004 that estimated the numbers of deaths at over 100,000. It uses a method that is widely accepted by US government agencies, including the CIA.
