still quite a bit away from “millions”
the HIGHEST (by a significant margin) for Iraq is 1.033 million, and that is total excess death, not casualties
and for Afghanistan it barely reaches 200,000 in 20 years
so no, Hundreds of thousands is correct, Millions is Soviet territory
More than a million is “millions”. And if we’re talking about total historical deaths attributable then the US has the USSR beat by a lot. Neoliberal capitalism is just as bloodthirsty as state capitalism, except the US had more time and power to kill people.
My only issue is that your estimate of the number of people killed is missing 3 zeroes. It’s more like millions.
