#1 1065 in Mosul alone.

Kinda makes carpet bombing the shit out of ISIS seem cheap by comparison in terms of lives, doesn't it?

#2 The 'Human Rights' community demands perfection rather than accept the reality of collateral damage. Better to suffer 200 or 300 civilian casualties taking out rather than allowing the barbarians to kill a thousand. It's a matter of trade offs, always has been. The French suffered about 50-60,000 casualties in the time between the German occupation and the liberation of France from allied bombings and the fighting after D-Day.
