BAGHDAD (BNO NEWS) — Two U.S. soldiers were killed and five others were injured during combat operations in northern Iraq on Wednesday, the U.S. military said on Thursday.

The incident happened when soldiers from the United States Division - North were conducting a patrol in northern Iraq. The U.S. Military did not say what caused the casualties, but said it happened during ‘combat operations.’


“We have no further update at this time,” said Brian Wierzbicki, a spokesman for U.S. Forces in Iraq, in response to an inquiry from BNO News.

Five other American soldiers were injured and evacuated to a military medical facility where they are being treated.

4. Not necessarily.
Convincing someone it is their job and duty really warps one's perspective. Many of them are murderers, and we have no way of know how pervasive it is.

I don't like seeing anyone kill or be killed in the name of US policy. Surely, you can understand that. Their killing and their deaths and the subsequent tragedies of all families involved is the very reason I am against war.
