Still 3000 short of the 5000 being predicted by many before the war started.

5,000? I remember the predictions of 10's of thousands.

The left has always been cheering for deaths to get their way (out of Iraq). Remember their claim, "Just wait until the bodybags start coming home, the tide will turn".

And then there is Saddamite Michael Moore's (Miserable Failure)outburst (just days before Nick Berg's decapitation):

The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not "insurgents" or "terrorists" or "The Enemy." They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win. Get it, Mr. Bush? [snip]

I oppose the U.N. or anyone else risking the lives of their citizens to extract us from our debacle. I'm sorry, but the majority of Americans supported this war once it began and, sadly, that majority must now sacrifice their children until enough blood has been let that maybe -- just maybe -- God and the Iraqi people will forgive us in the end.
