Iraq: Lies, Damned Lies and Statistics
Michael Winship writes for Truthout: "Throughout, the Bush administration has misinterpreted, cooked or hidden the numbers that tell the real story: the number of attacks, the number of suicide bombings, the numbers of civilian dead and wounded. For politicians and generals, statistics (as I have quoted an old British truism here before) are like a lamppost to a drunk - used more for support than illumination."
