Iran Death Toll Estimates

Does someone have a good model for estimating these kinds of figures given widely divergent reports in press sources and otherwise? How might we approach such a problem with a greater degree of statistical/mathematical rigor? What information DO we have at our disposal that we might devise a model approach?

We don't. Read Moon of Alabama: https://www.moonofalabama.org/2026/01/iran-the-ragtag-networ...

Overall, we rate Moon of Alabama Left as Biased and questionable based on the promotion of pro-Russian propaganda and conspiracy theories, the use of poor sources, false claims, and a lack of transparency.

This website lists the ADL as “highly credible”.

Yeah, Princeton educated capitalist propaganda guru David M. Van Zandt is always my first go to. Let me guess, he sits on the Atlantic Council, too? Maybe, try finding your brain and do your own thinking.
