Let's see, Americans have lost 2,503 in Iraq, 113 from the UK, 32 Italians, and 18 Ukrainians gave their lives. Mind you, I am not saying we do not appreciate the Polish contribution. However, Poland did not suffer even 1% of American losses, whereas they have a population 20% as large as the US. If they were as committed as the US in Iraq they would have suffered over 500 losses. No lizol, shame on you.

And what are your "brilliant" ideas about the reasons why "113 from the UK, 32 Italians, and 18 Ukrainians" gave their lives in Iraq?

I must tell you I'm pretty shocked, that a former military man can measure value of some other soldier's death.

My advice for you is to go, and tell mothers, or wifes, or kids of these guys, that their deaths were not important, as they fought only for free visas to U.S.

Thanks God your attitude is only an ugly exception - as this thread shows.

There are many reasons that other countries do not field as large a force as the US. But in no way can numbers gauge their level of commitment. To say otherwise is to prove yourself very ungrateful. I think I may speak for many Americans when I express gratitude to all of our allies. We are honored by their presence.
