1. I gues we are still in April...I hope this is the record month... we
don't need another one like this.
the problem is that once Saddam's thughs are in power again (i.e., Fallujah) they will kill and torture their own fellow citizens with our help... and we won't hear about mass graves any more.

4. "We're saving more people than should be saved, probably,"
Edited on Fri Apr-30-04 10:55 AM by jmcgowanjm
Lt. Col. Robert Carroll said. "We're saving severely injured people. Legs. Eyes. Part of the brain."

"See all that dark stuff? That's dead brain," he said. "That
ain't gonna regenerate. And that's not uncommon. That's
really not uncommon. We do craniotomies on average, lately,
of one a day."

Troops being sent home brain dead so family
can pull the plug. And not be counted as KIA.

5. If this thing starts going anything like Vietnam
we can expect about 250 dead American soldiers next month.

7. 250 at least
I have a feeling the surface has barely been scratched when it comes to just how ugly things could get over there.
