"CENTCOM made a conscious decision very early in the conflict not to report body counts. Their given reason was to avoid any connection with the Vietnam experience.",

Actually, Centcom started this policy back in '91 during GulfWar I.

Perhaps it is only my wishful thinking, and my sincere hope, that we have probably killed many thousands of these a$$holes in both the Afgan and Iraq theatres.

Thanks, I hadn't heard about it during GW I.
I think you're right, I think we're cleaning up there.
