Damn - only 300 killed in Najaf the past two days?!?

C'mon, boys -- I know we can do better than that. :mad:

After all, that is the military's strategy, right? Wipe 'em all out (which assumes a finite number of insurgents)? "Turn the Middle East into glass", etc.?

Fuck George W. Bush. Fuck him with Condoleeza's dick.

3. Nice round number -- sounds like a W.A.G. count
ie., Wild Assed Guess.

Maybe they divided the number of rounds spent by 3 or something.

:shrug:

Bewteen this and the sudden flurry of arrests we've had lately, Georgie's has gotten more done since the Dem convention since he has since 9/11!

6. I still take that 300 number and figure in the non-fighters..
hell.. the Pentagon still insists that only "fighters" where killed in Fallujah, and the wedding party was not a wedding party that we bombed.

The sickest thing of all.. is that at least 2 of our military were killed yesterday and it doesn't even register a blip anymore in our media. Their deaths are being COVERED UP!! ANd I fucking hate it!

The entire city looked to be on fire...
