OK, now I've looked at the study. That range is the double-ended 95% confidence interval (excluding Fallujah). That's not so great. Then you get into the problems with methodology, which UT has outlined quite well.

Furthermore, I see no claim in the study that these were civilian deaths. That appears to be someone else's addition.

The study is junk.
