Gentlemen,
Nobody knows the exact figures. The US military is purposefully not
keeping score (just one of the fishy things about this war).

I agree, but it's really not their job.


I doubt the US military is *deliberately* killing civilians

I've never seen anybody claim that.


(and would
hate to be shown otherwise), but that does NOT absolve them of
responsibility.

Agreed. And from both a legal and moral standpoint, that responisibility
goes all the way to the top of the chain of command.

On topic - help! - my husband wants to buy a schooner!


You want us to help him buy it? Or you want us to help you prevent him?
Why? A schooner sounds like an awful lot of fun, I've always wanted one
myself. But I already have too many boats.
