Are you sure there are only 18 casualties or has the Bush camp decided to now not count the Iraq soldiers lost who fought allong with the US to the totals? I do hope that this news is true and that the fighting in that city is close to an end. The shortage of food and water and the threat of disease is a great concern.
I find it a little funny that you post this article and not another one. Hmm, seems like you are trying to shift our attention, a well known republican tactic.
What other article am I supposed to post? Something negative out of the left like NBC's story trying to demonize that poor soldier for shooting that terrorist pretending to be dead?
I'm not positive as I read it a while ago, but I think there were three Iraqi military deaths.
And Zagatto, I really hope that happens soon. I feel bad for the Iraqi people, especially those in terrorist controlled or influenced cities. =/
