Longest period without U.S. death since the start of the Iraqi conflict
05/22/04 | Gabriel Presley

Posted on 05/22/2004 6:44:18 PM PDT by Gdzine

After examing one of the Fox News list of American Dead, I found that the at a few different points during the Iraqi conflict there had been as long as five days without an American never being killed, until now. Although the media was quick to report that April the worse month for American soldiers in Iraqi, they are not reporting now that it has been six days without an American death. This is the longest stretch of time without a U.S. death since Bush declared an end to major combat operations in Iraqi

What did President Bush know, and when did he know it? (/sarcasm)

Naw, it's the fault of those "Horrible" Abu G pictures. Who wants to risk being at the bottom of a naked prisoner pyramid?

Yes but how many mass murderers had their feelings hurt today after all that is the newest RATmedia measure of success.

This dramatic decline of our deaths is one of the reasons the Phony Iraqi Prisoner Abuse Outrage Syndrome has been so egregiously over played by the RATmedia. There are tremendous good things going on there which it is desperate to obscure.

Expect the crescendo of Lies to increase in volume and pitch as its desperation grows.

There is no doubt that there has been a great drop in Americans killed, I would guess less than a score since the beginning of the month.

There are reports that when Sadr's militia fled Karbala today its pursuers were waving tampoons and shouting "God is Great."

May be that the US military is kicking butt in Iraq and the MSM is not reporting it.But this is normal for MSM not to report anything good.

I wish we could refrain from this kind of statistical analysis. It is something an immature disrupter might do.
