"The Afghan Islamic Press estimates that the U.S. bombing killed a total
of 633 civilians and wounded up to 1,000 in the first 29 days of the
campaign.
The Taliban have put the death toll at 1,500, a figure the United States
rejects as exaggerated. "
So... 1000 wounded civilians and 633 DEAD civilians is OK, but 1500 dead is not?
I wish I could ask whoever rejected that statement as exaggerated... "huh?"
