BAGHDAD, May 26 (KUNA) -- An American soldier died in a traffic accident north of the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, said a Multi-National Forces (MNF) statement on Thursday.

The American soldier died due to severe wounds resulting from a traffic accident near Al-Touz town on Wednesday, said the statement, adding that investigations have been undergoing to reveal the causes of the accident.

1. The driver probably swerved to avoid an IED or...

...sped up through an intersection after receiving sniper fire.... or some other incident that would stretch the veracity of accounting for the death as "accidental."

3. I've heard anecdotal stories to this effect

If a vehicle turns over speeding away from an ambush, then the deaths are traffic deaths. That's why I stopped trying to distinguish between a "combat" death and the other deaths caused by our people being in the wrong country at the wrong time.

5. Undoubtedly the truth. When we saw some videos released by the rebels

it showed how fast the American soldiers were driving. Actually I couldn't believe how fast their vehicles were moving in residential areas. If I were in their positions I would do the same for survial of my life and to do my best to stay on Earth with my family and friends. But what are the result?
1. A disgraceful disgusting GOP Admin/Defensed Department, run by liars who started an immoral and unjustified war which has murdered more than 100,000 people on both sides. Such slime, evil, immorality knowing allow our soldiers' deaths to be classified as 'traffic accidents' to cover the mistakes of the Admin/DOD. To make it look like Iraq is not as bad as it really is. When I see an "educated" Christian supporting aWol, Cheney, Rumsfeld... I know I am looking at pure evil.

2. Because of what aWol has sent our children into, they have to do whatever they can do to survive which means they have to drive too quickly resulting in deaths or civilians and soldiers. They are killing people regularly at check-points...

How does a Christian sleep at night?

2. Died due to severe wounds? Isn't the term "injuries" usually used

in association with traffic accidents or has the MNF inadvertently let the cat out of the bag?

4. Isn't this all mixed up! The American Whore Media uses the term

"injury", as in "tennis injury", for American soldiers' limbs being blow off. As the Kuwait's use "wounded" for traffic accidents.

God Bless The Butchers of Baghdad!
