4 US soldiers dead in Iraq...toll hits 450
Why this number getting lower and lower?????

:grr:

Are we not supposed to notice? Do I have to go somewhere else for a list which includes dead Americans who weren't "US Marines which died in an actual firefight with a direct bulletwound to the head"?????

:wtf:

1. Should't it be like 817?
ABC has it at 600. Now 450? Are you joking/sarcastic here or is there a source that mentions 450?

2. Because if the number keeps getting higher,
the terrorists will think they are winning. Do you want the terrorists to win!?!?!

4. I posted these earlier and not even one response. I guess we won't
mind anymore until we get over 1000.

5. 823 dead...link provided

684 dead since hostilities were ceased

where ever you got the 450 figure is "wildly off the mark"

7. Maybe 450 is the number of troops
killed just in Baghdad?

8. ...and of those 450
... just 12 whose surnames begin with "H" and were born in the midwest and died on a Tuesday.

So there really have only been TWELVE deaths in Iraq. Get with the pigeonholing program, man!
