Coalition servicemen killed in the war against Iraq:

Total announced as of 2nd of November: 433 (377 US, 51 UK, 1 Denmark,
3 Spain, 1 Ukraine)

...which is about ten percent of the Russian deaths in Chechnya for 2002.

Thank heavens the US only had to go up against an army with mostly
Russian equipment to fight with.


Don't know how about others but this "Thank heavens..." sounds a bit
stuipid to me. Yes, 10% of TOTAL russian losses so far!


...for six months, compared to a year.

Not "total."

You're still going off of the old "official" numbers, not the
recently-revised ones that show more deaths in one year than they used
to admit for the entire campaign.


Crap, which even you cannot believe in. Note US casualties I have cited
are official pentagon numbers as well. For isntance we still do not know
how many US servicemen died in hospitals outside of Iraq etc.
