The New York Times today runs photographs of the 995 American service members killed in Iraq in the past year. This roster of the dead takes up four pages.
Were the Times to run a similar feature on the minimum 30,000 Iraqi civilians killed since the invasion, it would fill 120 pages. In today's edition that's the entire A section, metro, business, arts, sports and cars.
There would, however, be eight pages left for Dining In.
