There's a lot that iraqbodycount doesn't keep track of.  Non-civilian Iraqi
deaths, unreported deaths, and non-Iraqi deaths are just 3 that come to mind.
If someone wants to log a record of Saddam's various atrocities, that would be
good.  Might be a lot harder to do though.  iraqbodycount.org is doing
something quite simple and reasonably accurate.  Well, actually their methodology
results in an understatement of deaths but I suppose it's the best that could be
done.

Although they could do more I suppose - for instance, they aren't even
attempting to calculate deaths per WMD found!
