9 U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq in 2 days

[nhboy]

"BAGHDAD (AP) — Nine American soldiers were killed in the first two days of a new offensive to root out al-Qaeda in Iraq fighters holed up in districts north of the capital, the U.S. military reported Wednesday.

The losses came as many militants fled U.S. and Iraqi forces massing in Diyala, a province of palm and citrus groves that has defied the trend toward lower violence. The campaign's scope is nationwide but is mainly focused on gaining control of Diyala and its most important city, Baqouba, which al-Qaeda has declared the capital of its self-styled Islamic caliphate."

Yeh, but we gotta fight them over there, or else they'd be booby trapping houses, and setting up IED's in the streets over here...

now where's that Chinese bank so we can borrow another couple hundred billion to keep this war going...

Check the stats for murders in New York, same time frame.

That Chinese bank is in Denver. They're loaning money to the Socialists in that state to fund the education of children having children who want an early seat sucking at the trough of public assistance.

Your ignorance is boundless.

He must wear those baggy pants that hang around his knees, but forgot the boxers! He's always showing his azz.

Really? How many policemen in New York were blown up on booby trapped houses last year, or ever for that matter?

I'm guessing none.

More American deaths, for Iraqis who don't even appreciate it.

Why don't you march on down to the recruiting office. Uncle Sam needs nine more soldiers as of today to replace the ones who died. I understand that they are more lenient on the age requirements, and will even overlook a felony or two....

Done twenty two years. One of the class of 72 sonny. Done my time. Retired Special Operations Submarines. I KNOW of what I speak. Do you?

We have had bombings in the United States by our own citizens. Right off the top of my head I can remember that federal building in Oklahoma, the University in Wisconsin and the federal buildings bombed by Weathermen (and later became the Weathermen Underground). The Weathermen finally got the attention of the FBI.

Our anti-war movement in the U.S. hasn't always been non-violent.

Hey libtard, how do you know that the Iraqi citizens don't appreciate it? Have you ever been over there and asked? Have you ever even served in the military? If you haven't then shut your piehole and go away, your opinion counts for naught!

I'm not exactly sure, but here's 151000 who probably aren't big fans of our presence in Iraq....Hey, I bet their relatives aren't either....

New survey of Iraqi death toll: 151,000 | csmonitor.com

A new study conducted jointly by the Iraqi government and the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 151,000 Iraqis died in the years following the US-led invasion of Iraq. The survey, the latest of many different estimates of Iraqi mortality during the war, is a quarter of the toll calculated by an earlier study by Iraqi and Johns Hopkins University researchers, but much higher than some other estimates by independent groups and US military.

Forestool also mentions shootings.

You make me sick! You have no clue what it means to sacrifice. Those that serve and risk their lives so you can safely and freely puke up your crap in here only receive disrespect and disdain from the likes of you.

Uh, Dipsh!t, how many of those were killed by terrorist of their own creed? I bet the majority!
Compare those numbers to a given set of years when Soddam Hussein was in charge and was exterminating sections of his population and I bet the numbers of those Iraqis killed was much higher when your buddy Hussein was around.
I hope someone runs you over with a truck.
