1. It gets worse and worse.

What's the BC now? 727? Shameful.

[lebkuchen]

2. No mention of nationalities, just "coalition forces"

What are the chances these three soldiers are American? Even odds?

3. I'll take your money

if they weren't americans, the CPA would have listed their nationality.

4. For those of us who have loved ones in Iraq

This military policy of not giving out even minimal information just heightens the anxiety. When they give out what country and unit, one knows whether to exhale or to keep dreading when the phone rings.

Compassionate conservative my butt!

6. Considering what is going on

I'd say there is a pretty good chance that you could treble this a few times, and maybe then not come near the real figure. We're being lied to big time on this.
