Three U.S. troops died in one day...buried in an article on hotel bombings
"Insurgents also fired mortar rounds at two U.S. military bases on Wednesday, killing three American soldiers and wounding nine others, the military said Thursday. The deaths brought to 567 the number of U.S. troops killed in Iraq since the start of hostilities last year, according to Defense Department figures. "

They are really and truly doing *everything* they can to make sure Joe Sixpack doesn't realize that there is a real war going on in Iraq and U.S. troops are getting killed and/or maimed for life damn near every day. The media's disregard of this info is damn near criminal.

1. That the media gives so little value to Americans dying
for their country, no matter how misguided, IS criminal.

4. Lunaville has the fatalities at 570
As the anniverary of the invasion approaches, look for more attacks, especially attacks designed to draw americans out of their compounds where they can be killed easier.
