That's 40+ deaths to every American casualty, but you'd never know it

The General was making an educated SWAG...it's probably a conservative number.

50,00 insurgents/terrorists/murderers is a good start.

Did they mean 'terrorists'? I'm surprised the Washington ComPost didn't use "freedom fighters".

I'm very glad I wasn't drinking anything when I hit 'refresh'. That was good

He said the eight to 10 leaders "occasionally meet -- we've recorded that -- not just in Iraq, but in Jordan and Syria." The most interesting comments within this article -
50,000 of these thugs KIA or captured seems a very reasonable number / estimate -

They won't be getting them from Earth...that's for sure. (Something tells me China's fresh out.)

IT wouldn't matter if it was 10,000 to one. The only report that undermines our WOT is another death of one of ours.
That is why the MSM does NOT have the common sense, decency or the discipline to REPORT those KILLED in ACTION without combining that report with deaths by natural cause, accident or suicide.

I'm faxing a copy of this to ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and tell them to stop complaining about dropping news ratings and start giving us the da&* news!
To: Asphalt
FYI your top link indicates the Wash Post rather than the Times.
To: Asphalt
That is just deaths on the enemy side in the last 7 months, not the whole two years.
It's far higher than 40-1 Asphalt.
Way to go military!

Heaven's going to have to order more virgins.
Ya know, Muslim women go to heaven too!
And what do THEY get?
To be virgins, over and over and over again.

I have the gift of the typo. I wish I could tell you that it was all my doing, but unfortunatly 99% is from other sources.
