Notice U.S. Casualties up and Iraqi Security Forces' down for last 2 mos.?
U.S. Casualties:

Iraqi Security Forces
http://icasualties.org/oif/IraqiDeaths.aspx



Iraqi forces casualties trending downward while U.S. casualties are the highest since Jan. 2005?

I thought more and more Iraqi forces were taking over?



Guess not.

:(

3. those I've talked to on leave
say the IP and ING are responsible for some of those US soldier deaths. Anyone been watching "Off to War" on the Discovery Channel? Those Arkansas National Guards said the same thing....the forces our people train and arm, kill them sometimes.

4. Not surprising. Hersh said months ago the insurgents had infiltrated...
all aspects of the Iraqi gov't as well as the security forces.
