The number per month is down to around 30 with some in the low 20s. This is the safest war in history.

Pray for W and Our Amazing Troops

I wish the Commies down at PMSNBC would keep a body count of how many of their Al Qaeda buddies have bitten the dust. That’s something I’d like to know but they seem to be keeping it a secret.

4,000 is a lie.

The men and women are dead but they didn’t all sustain attacks in Iraq. Plenty died of forklift accidents in Kuwait, heart attacks in Germany, and one woman of crossing the highway in Kansas.

Add to this people dying of electricution, drowning, vehicular accidents, etc.

The media should tell us right now how many American soldiers have died of similar accidents on bases around the world in the past 5 years.

I LOATHE the yellow journalist muckraking bottom feeders.

Why is the Army still in the
‘routine-ground-patrol’ business?

It is long overdue for the Iraqis to
do the ground work.

We have to finish this job or it will all be in vain.

This is a logical fallacy. Why throw good money after bad? The US has accomplished its mission. Saddam is gone, there are no WMDs, Iraq has an elected democratic government, heavens, they are pumping a lot of oil.

Before one more life is lost, we should leave.

Before one more day is is gone, you should leave this site and return to the du where the tripe that you are trying to pass as logic is considered deep thinking.

Heavens, you are shoveling a lot of crap.

It's too late to debate your shallow thoughts, but there are two options, win or lose.

Actually, our men have been safer in Irah than they would have been in the States. Far more have died in auto accidents in one year than the 5 years at Irah. Far more have died in binge drinking at colleges than in the war. Many, many more of our young people have died from DUI’s, and drugs(in one year,than those died in Irah in 5 years)and the medical care and criminal acts for illegals, and has exceeded the cost of the war !!!!!!!!!!!! May God bless our troops!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THESE 4,000 DEAD MEN AND WOMEN ARE DEAD BECAUSE SOME JIHADI GOT INSPIRED BY ANTI-AMERICAN PROPAGANDA EMANATING FROM ANTI-AMERICANS IN THE U.S.A.?

I would guess more than half. I do not know how these traitors sleep at night, knowing they are trading the lives of our troops for their need for power

And they have to know the figures in this link that show that twice as many soldiers/Marines died during the Clinton Regime

An interesting context for the 4000 deaths in the 5+ year war is that 10,000 servicemen (service-people) died during the Clinton presidency. Does the body count seem a bit asymmetric - as usual? The citation came from Roger Hedgecock who seems disinclined to hyperbole. The case might be made for sending more of our soldiers into battle since it appear to be safer than living stateside.
