Was it as bad as when Soviet tanks pushed into Hungary and Czechslovakia, killing innocents left and right? Maybe some American cop lost it (it happens) during the heat of the rock throwing, but the Soviet superpower deliberately exterminated sections of Prague without consideration.

Then be glad you live in a country that allows you to say what you just said. In any Communist country, you'd be jailed. USSR, China, Cuba, etc. You're a counter-revolutionary criminal intent on the destruction of the socialist state paradise with pro-fascist or pro-capitalist leanings. (I've heard that so many times in Chinese trials its no longer making sense)

Were 20,000 people killed DELIBERATELY by US bombs? No.
Don't forget the millions who were always in poverty under Saddam's regime.
Oh yeah, I forgot Saddam also executed more than 20,000 people too. What is better, a few accidental deaths, or deliberate extermination?
I can claim you killed over 100,000 ants over your lifetime. Many monks would be horrified that you killed so much life.
Everything is done on comparison. Unless we clone Ghandis and execute everyone else, we can never have a "Paradise".
