I don't care about success or failure and that wasn't my question, I want to know how many rag heads we've capped so far. It's a simple question really.

It is impossible to count the enemy dead because the lily-livered cowards hide themselves among the women and children in order to look innocent and this allows for more dead so they can give higher numbers to to the media and claim we are only killing innocents.

Not enough to make a real impact on the Iraqi insurgency.
Oh, there have been outrageous claims that US forces have killed "thousands" on one day, or even "hundreds", but when you're dealing with a 100,000 or more--and the numbers just keep growing geometrically by the day...?
You ever heard of the game "Whack a Mole"?
This is what we've been doing to the insurgents for the last 4 years. And they just keep coming back in greater numbers.
It won't matter how many we kill now and in the future. The insurgency can't be defeated militarily.

You'll never hear that figure because liberals control the mainstream media, and they want you to turn on President Bush. In actually, 3,200 US KIA in 4 years is quite low, but the liberal media won't tell you that, either.

like a million but the liberal media wont broadcast it and fox news(the only conservatives sadly) are too dumb. Anyway theres a whole hoard of them and one american's life is worth all of their worthless existances so in the end the only fair trade for a raghead life is one bullet.

We learned in Viet Nam that enemy body counts are not an indicator of success. Therefore, there is really no need to keep up with it.
I'm sure you can find a conspiracy site with all the numbers you "want" to hear.

when you hear so many thousands of your own people dead, it makes you want them to fight harder and maybe even support then in the war effort.
but
when you hear you lost like 5,000 and killed 200,000 it does not seem so bad as the unknown

Bush's occupying force told the local govt to stop counting, so totals are anybody's guess. There are websites out there that have estimates.

You won't find out, because the Liberal media will be basically saying we are doing a great job.

Liberal media don't want to talk about that side of the war...
