The reports detail 109,032 deaths in Iraq, comprised of 66,081 'civilians'; 23,984 'enemy' (those labeled as insurgents); 15,196 'host nation' (Iraqi government forces) and 3,771 'friendly' (coalition forces). The majority of the deaths (66,000, over 60%) of these are civilian deaths.That is 31 civilians dying every day during the six year period. For comparison, the 'Afghan War Diaries', previously released by WikiLeaks, covering the same period, detail the deaths of some 20,000 people. Iraq during the same period, was five times as lethal with equivalent population size.
 
I suppose this includes the people who were killed in the suicide blasts also (in the civilian deaths figures). There were a lot of Shia Sunni infighting which resulted in deaths as well.

Yes...even I suppose, it seems to include suicide blasts and Shia Sunni infighting...
