Some of our cities are indeed higher than 25/100K, but as far as states go, none are that high -- the very violent cities are countered by the relatively safe rest of the state. Only DC is higher (double). I'm sure Baghdad or Tikrit taken alone would score higher than any of our cities.

OK but I was questioning more the validity of the Iraq figures, which are not listed on the site you gave me.
