>You're comparing three guys that run a website, to a university sponsored study in a professional medical journal. The Iraq Body count project estimates deaths based on media reports, while the Lancet study has done via interviewing, then verify claims of deaths with families. Then extrapolating that using convential mathematical techniques.

I was merely providing a single link. There's quite a bit of discussion regarding the Lancet's study's sampling and methodology. In addition the numbers cited by the Lancet study imply an 80% underreporting of death not only by the local and international press, but by health professionals and the Iraqi government itself. Get out a calculator and look at the numbers, they do not add up.
