<snip>

"A U.S. soldier was killed and another wounded Monday night when a roadside bomb exploded as their military convoy passed by on a road near Baghdad, according to the U.S. military.

The soldiers, whose names have not been released, were assigned to the U.S. Army's 13th Corps Support Command."

3. Death toll approaching 1,000 U.S. soldiers
From the article:
The latest death brings to 994 the number of American troops killed since the start of the Iraq war last year.

Too bad Richard Perle finds Colin Powell's concern for the safety of our soldiers made Powell look like a "wuss." (This was posted by a DU'er earlier tonight.) There's a reference to it in this link:

I'll bet our soldiers would rather a lot more men like Colin Powell were looking out for them than people like Richard Perle.


Bush advisor Perle.
