Actually - the US military has the lowest percentage of fratricidal engagements of any nation's armed services.
And a soldier in Iraq has a higher chance of surviving his tour than a college student has of surviving four years in a university.
In reality the insurgents suck. Every day they commit an atrocity against Iraqi civilians and you cheer them on.
Please quit pretending to care about the troops - it is obvious that you regard them as nothing more than props for your political opinions.

FF is a problem, yes, but it is one we have dealt with from the beginning. In Iraq, we have had the fewest FF hits than any other major conflict. The sad thing is, of the 3500 troops that died in Iraq, more than 40% died from accidents and FF.
A bad statistic.

why has everyone started calling it friendly fire, coz it ain't friendly whether its the enemy or your mucker.
Blue on Blue is more in line.
