7. Er, US dead since May 1 is 91

The keeping of two different books of casualties, the first, lesser, and most frequently published of which ignores the deaths not directly caused by enemy fire is a marketing ploy. Nor do they even bother to mention the maimed and wounded. Nor the Iraqi dead and disabled.

If I did the math right, the international force sans Great Britain amounts to 3,000 troops. One wonders if the additional difficulties of integrating such small numbers of foreign troops in the "effort" really "helps."
