As an example of the way I look at things, seen a bumper sticker yesterday.
It went something like this...
Clinton lied four died!
To this,
I say Bush lied and many thousands died!
All this President is attempting is to let the locals figure it out. The results are what they are. A serious look needs to bring that part of the world into the fold of modern society. Not the old still practiced rob the riches and leave the locals wanting a holdover from colonial days.

If you consider the hundreds of thousands of Iraqis who have died and the millions displaced, "many thousands" is an obscenely trivial term.
