Need number of troops killed in Iraq
Does someone have the up to date totals of how many troops have been killed in this unjustified war? I need it to update my sign for today's protest. I went to icasualties.org where I usually get the numbers but they send me to some different site that is no help. Thanks in advance.

3. Check out this site.
It seems to maintain the most accurate and up to date tally, with alot of details about when, where, how, what unit, and overall statistics.

http://icasualties.org/oif/

I check it out constantly.

4. Well it is on this thing but I do not know about the new stuff
We seem to be back at few getting killed by fighting and once more we have exported all the bad drivers in the service to Iraq. So they are killing them self off with this poor showing on the road. Always seemed like an odd thing to me that so many young men are killed that way in the middle of a war but I guess some one will believe them.

5. Sustainable loss
The admin/PNAC knows that we will always lose people in our middle eastern conquests and as long it is not a large number they are fine with it. Indeed, all that bothers them about a large number is public perception.
