Re: Surprising ratio of losses in Iraq

its really hard to find any data to talk about this Winkpedia isnt a reliable source and most of what i have looked over , in the last 20 minutes has been opinion pieces on boards like this

Found one that speaks of the miltary releasing a number of 19 K

Counter to press - 19,000 insurgents killed in Iraq since '03

searched Army Knowledge Online and couldnt find any data that could substanitate this article


but to address those numbers, if true , which i dont agree the insurgent casualties are that low, just from talking to those who still are over there when they do get them to show their faces , they die , due believe most of the high rate of casualties are due to the obvious IED

they have to be lucky once, we have to be lucky all the time.
