No, that is the number of people that died, not the number of people killed by Coalition forces. If you care so much about the subject how come you are so poorly informed about it?

Watch from about 17:30 where Noam Chomsky describes more eloquently some of the war crimes commited by the US and it's allies.
I would actually watch the whole thing if I were you. You can skip the Tariq Ali introduction if you want..but i would suggest watching the whole thing if you have time.

Not a war-crime, as they were working with Iraqi forces vs insurgents I assume that the Iraqi government had sanctioned the securing of the hospital building, which they or the Americans can do under Article 19 of the same convention: Art. 19. The protection to which civilian hospitals are entitled shall not cease unless they are used to commit, outside their humanitarian duties, acts harmful to the enemy. Protection may, however, cease only after due warning has been given, naming, in all appropriate cases, a reasonable time limit and after such warning has remained unheeded.
That doesn't answer the question though. You linked an article you said described a war crime, I have read the article and am struggling to see what war crime was commited in it.

Right idea?; oh I see the angle you take, "preach bs to the uneducated masses to get a voter base then use a false flag exercise to ban political opposition and institute martial law, or was it a German patriot act?.
Britain was in need but not on it's knees, just able to defend its self but unable to swing the balance from defense to attack. The United States did not in fact give Britain money; what they did give was in effect an infinite line of loaned equipment and materials allowing Britain to procure needed materials and hardware to sustain and eventually ramp up the war effort from defense to attack. Anything of durable origin like ships and such was to be handed back after hostilities ceased. Anything that Britain needed after the lend lease ended was sold to us at 10% of value.
At the start of the war Britain was either paying in gold or liquidated assets but was running out of currency to buy further goods, lend lease enabled Britain to continue to acquire the materials needed.
The money loaned by the USA to England came just after the end of the war and was needed as Britain had in effect run out of money funding the war.
The USA was given a rude awakening from isolationism and its troops did a pretty poor job at first being quite inexperienced they did get rather mauled in north Africa at the start of their involvement against the Germans. After a steep learning curve they got things in order and did start to break German and Japanese forces (along with the rest of the allies).
By no means at all did the world police myth come into anything during the second world war. Sheer weight of numbers from the western allies and the monster that was the Soviet Union smashed the German forces so badly that they were unable to fight effectively and were slowly pushed back until defeat.
Hitler wanted a free country he went to far, he had the right idea, Britian was on its knees USA steps in offers loads of money for planes ships food to defend Britain thus we are in debt, they step in after 3 years, drop a bomb TEAM AMERICA:WORLD POLICE
Grateful for the end of the war imho, my grandad came home from Japan as a POW and my dad was born and the rest is history
Hitler had the right idea, really!?... You even managed to spell Britain wrong.
You never fail to deliver cheets, I'll give you that.

I know you're not the most educated of guys but even so you said a really stupid, offensive and ignorant thing and have no defence. You certainly shouldn't be admonishing others.
