In September 2007, a British polling company named ORB released an alarming estimate of "more than 1,000,000 Iraqis murdered" in the Iraq war. ORB`s poll-based estimate has been cited approvingly in much of the blogosphere, a number of mainstream media outlets and academic publications, and in official statements from the Bloomberg School of Public Health of Johns Hopkins University in support of their own work in this area.
