Was one million a benchmark? How about two?

ORB, a British pollster, has done a household survey in Iraq that indicates that more than 1.2 million Iraqi civilians have died as a result of the war. The US will angrily dispute this of course but as the American forces have long made a point of telling us that they can't be bothered to keep track of the figure they will have no statistical evidence to provide. As I have long said "never let facts get in the way of a really good plan".
