An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. It took some looking around, but I finally found some information on the number of casualties in Afghanistan.
Economics Professor Marc Herold from the University of New Hampshire, spent 6 weeks working 12 hour days compiling data. What he calls his conservative estimate, not including Taliban and al-Qaeda fighters, is 3,700 civilians killed by American and British bombs.
Afghanistan Death Toll. And think of all the many more thousands who have to survive after the bombings.
