Just so you know, it does bother me to hear about casualties, simply because my fiance is a Marine. While he is not yet over there, I am friends with many women who have husbands over there currently. I also have freinds who could be there right now; I really don't know. Every casualty ups the chances of my fiance being deployed very soon. I realize that this is simply a part of war, as does everyone who is involved with the military, but it doesn't stop us from being bothered by it. I also realize that there have been very few deaths, but it doesn't stop this from being frightening to those of us with loved ones at stake...

I admit, the media sucks, but I just wanted to give you a heads up on how your post might be a bit harsh (since it seems to be directed at everyone....)...sorry if you feel that I am whining...
