90% of 750 Iraqis killed in Fallujah were civilians (CNBC crawl) |

This was on CNBC last night. I just thought I'd drop this statistic in the forum, hoping someone could connect me to the news story it came from. I think it had to do with a UN investigation? I searched in a couple of engines but still couldn't find anything. Thanks.

Stunning but ultimately not surprising to read that final count.
That is 675 people by they way -- close to the number of total US war dead. That is worse, by over double, than My Lai. Only it is being considered a legitimate offensive action. Being considered "provoked" -- the civilians were only unlucky, they just "got in the way."
Again I ask, where is the story? Maybe this statistic is included in that recent UN Human Rights report that the US doesn't like?
:cry:

7. That's what I'm asking for-- |

The headline ran across the screen, I have been typing in keywords on the search engines since but can't find any news story.
