Its faster, the (still, and hopefully fictional) scenario where Israel continues at tbe same killrate.

Wikipedia says 180,000 in afgahnistan and around 150,000-200,000 in Irak

That would be more deaths bud.

I dont know why we have this discussion, but both is horrible and there is no justification of killing civillians at any rate.

I used the numbers you provided, if they're wrong it's because you were wrong and similarly a shaker number over a longer period provides more support for my argument not less as you imply.

No one is denying both are horrible. You're the only one who's claimed I've taken a stance on it at all.
