U.S. Iraq war casualties reach new milestone

[JTrotter Fan]

18,356 wounded American soldiers.  Now that is a hell of a number.

[Diomedes]

A crazy amount of whom are maimed.

[Geowhizzer]

Obviously, these aren't the maimed soldiers, but it's interesting how many that could go home choose instead to stay in Iraq to finish their tour.

Wounded soldiers refuse to leave Iraq

Is this the right thread for a dead baby joke?

[rjs246]

What's funnier than a dead baby?

A dead baby sitting next to a kid with down syndrome.

Congratulations. You're officially stillupfront.

[rjs246]

Please! I only wish my nonsense could be so random.

But in reality I'm just trying to bring people together. And if there's one thing that everyone can agree on, it's the fact that dead babies are AWESOME.

Iraqi Official: Two Missing U.S. Soldiers Found Dead
There are reports that two U.S. soldiers believed kidnapped in Iraq have been
found dead.  The U.S. military says it cannot confirm the report.

23 and 25 years old.  These two are children.  Hardly in this world before they're dead.  For lies and money.

Bush and Cheney belong in prison with Saddam.

There is no bias in the media.

Nice tin foil hat.  The liberal media, blah blah blah.

The U.S. claims not to torture or murder, then it goes ahead and tortures and murders.  A lot.
That's why it's news.

Tin foil hats don't apply where there is fact.  Perhaps you should take a look over at DU in regards to the controlled implosion of the WTC, or the missle hitting the Pentagon.  Be sure to wear some sunglasses though...the glare from all that foil may blind you.

The US, as a matter of policy, does not "torture" or murder.  I quote torture because some forms of interrogation are still under scrutiny.  Panties on the head is not torture.  Flushing the quran down a toilet is not torture.  A power drill to the knees or head (a common practice in Iraq) is torture.  There have been instances where individuals in the US military have broken laws under the UCMJ and they have been, and are being, prosecuted.

(anyone surprised?  Farg the children..they're just little people, and people suck)

The U.S., as a matter of fact, does torture and murder.  Often enough so people like you look really stupid trying to blame it on bad apples.

Name calling Dio?  You have not done that for awhile...run out of ideas?

If you are speaking of torture and murder in YOUR EYES, than you are probably correct, but we disagree on what constitutes M&T.
