Are those estimates ever accurate? Also, that question is not fair. Because its like someone saying, Which is better. Use an atomic bomb so that we have lets say 100 deaths on our side. Or lets fight a war in a fair manner and have a loss of 10,000?

I agree war is hell. I think modern warfare isn't fair either. Especially when the US is envolved cos its TOOOO powerful and it doesn't want anyone to become as powerful as them. Thus the fear of China
