Nearly as many Iraqi security forces have been killed in Iraq since June 2004 as U.S. troops have died since 2003, a top Pentagon official says.
Deputy Defense Secretary Paul D. Wolfowitz told the Senate Armed Services Committee Thursday that 1,342 Iraqi police, soldiers and national guardsmen have died in Iraq since the country assumed sovereignty.
That number does not include a dozen Iraqi recruits killed Thursday by gunmen who ambushed their minivan near Kirkuk, according to news reports. It was just one of a string of incidents nationwide that claimed at least 29 in a surge of violence following a mostly peaceful election day.
At least 1,471 Americans have died in Iraq since March 2003, according to Wolfowitz. Another 126 coalition members have died as well.

Do you wonder how many civil people would have died in iraq, then? But, fuck you, an assassin of yours is worth ten iraqui people. You can't comprenhend it but the so-called "ressitance" is more coherent than your president.
Fuck coalition wich is helping U.S. pay its ducks.
Fuck U.S. and Bush as well: a decadant fast-food empire govern by a serial killer president.
The decadence will have arrived when petrol is opperated in Euros. We are itching for that moment to come!
