More Treason from the Treason Media. Will the US survive its press? Can it survive without jailing these editors who are working hand in glove with the enemy?

I would suspect the number is actually higher as it probably does not accurately predict those who were wounded and later died.

[CottShop]

ah but we're told how inneffectual the war on terror is and how it's nothign but a quagmire and how we must immediately retreat... eeeer I mean redeploy. The MSM says it so it must be true. http://sacredscoop.com

"US forces" can defaet anyone, anywhere, anytime. It's simply a matter of wanting to.

[RexBeach]

This report by AFP sounds very familiar. Hasn't this story been posted before, say, several weeks ago? I think the USMC report it refers to was leaked before the election. Yes?

"The news comes hard on the heels of a leaked US Marine report that states US forces cannot defeat the Al-Qaeda-led insurgency in the vast western desert province of Al-Anbar."
It would have been irresponsible of AFP to post good news towards their readership, so they had to inluce this... They just HAVE to assure you over and over that they are traitors... NO wait! They are French after all!

Aw, CNN weeps for it's fallen members!

[dubie]

Not enough dead vermin - add a few more zeroes after the 7000.

Meanwhile the MSM ignores press releases like this:

http://www.defenselink.mil/news/NewsArticle.aspx?ID=2216

"Coalition Kills 26 Insurgents in Iraq, Aids Anbar Tribe
American Forces Press Service


WASHINGTON, Nov. 26, 2006 – Coalition forces conducted several operations yesterday that resulted in the deaths of 26 insurgents, and supported an Iraqi tribe under attack by al Qaeda today, military officials in Iraq announced."

Very telling of what outcome the MSM wants when they print a classified 'report' that they will never have to divulge in full but ignore the real news. The MSM and the left do not want victory for the US, but defeat and humiliation. For some reason, these same people think the danger to their lives from our enemies is not real.... I had to deal with one last Thursday. She is my wife's aunt and stated that I wouldn't be around to spend my promotion pay as I'll be dead in Iraq (deploying soon). She just laughed derisively when I told her about the real dangers withing the USA and what will happen if the West loses the War on Terror.

I have to wonder about the sanity and mental acuity of the leftists and others who think the dangers of islamofascism are just a made up fantasy....

[CaptSkip]

AFP is SOOO much more pro-terrorists/radical-islam and Anti-America than even our own MSM...Agency Frog Press...cook-um!

[jveritas]

Excellent. This does not include the local Sunni and Shia terrorists. Those were just Al Qaeda terrorist. Iraq was the burial of Al Qeadea, they wanted to fight us in Iraq and it is in Iraq where we have been annihilating them. Iraq is the center front of the war on terror.

PS: This needs to be in the Breaking News section. Please ask the moderator to move it there.

7000! That's all! As our own loses approach 3,000 KIA!

That is unbelievable or unforgivable -- which is it?
That is a kill rate and kill ratio that is unsustainable.
We've been FAR too restrained in our actions - and our warriors are paying the price.

Hell, with far less technology and a military filled with draftees who really didn't want to be there -- we killed a Million combatants in Vietnam.

In the war against these Islamofacists - we need to be killing them on the order of WWII -- by the 100s of thousands or millions.

Those in the forum who constantly repeat that Iraq is not Vietnam are correct -- we killed more of the enemy, and the war was NOT lost while we fought it.. The South Vietnamese lost the war, AFTER we left.

Semper Fi

[MinorityRepublican]

Now the ultimate question is how many foreign fighters have been killed in Iraq since 2003?
