What about if it's 1:2? Or 1:3? Is there some amount of death and suffering that could occur now that would make everyone say: geez, they ARE worse now than before?

I have a feeling there isn't a number high enough for some.
One thing here... the better part of the dead Iraqis are the BAD GUYS!
You say you agree that it's a good thing Saddam is out... then wouldn't you also agree that his little trained minions are dealt with?
