Seven Marines die in two Iraq attacks

Stop talking about the wars, that way it's easier to watch the ballgame and forget about the people our tax dollars are killing.

Is it true that Tom Cruise is in love ????

People don't even pay attention to the deaths anymore

Why aren't you posting about the dozens of Iraqi civilians that are getting killed almost daily by the "insurgents" (terrorists)? there are a hell of a lot more Iraqis being killed by the "insurgents" than US Solders being killed.

7 marines dying is terrible, but what about all the Iraqi civilian men, women and children, being killed by other muslim arabs?

Why isn't that bad enough to post?

That was on news frontpage and i thought to post it. I should had pick the Britney Spears article. My bad.

Civilian deaths fuel dislike of U.S.
Iraqi government calls on troops to be more careful

BAGHDAD, Iraq -- Three men in an unmarked sedan pulled up near the headquarters of the national police major crimes unit. The two passengers, wearing traditional Arab "dishdasha" gowns, stepped from the car.

At the same moment, a U.S. military convoy emerged from an underpass. Apparently believing the men were staging an ambush, the Americans fired, killing one passenger and wounding the other. The sedan's driver was hit in the head by two bullet fragments.

The soldiers drove on without stopping.

This kind of shooting is far from rare in Baghdad, but the driver of the car was no ordinary casualty. He was Iraqi police Brig. Gen. Majeed Farraji, chief of the major crimes unit. His passengers were unarmed hitchhikers whom he was dropping off on his way to work.

"The reason they shot us is just because the Americans are reckless," the general said from his hospital bed hours after the July 6 shooting, his head wrapped in a white bandage. "Nobody punishes them or blames them."

Angered by the growing number of unarmed civilians killed by American troops in recent weeks, the Iraqi government criticized the shootings and called on U.S. troops to exercise greater care.

U.S. officials have repeatedly declined requests to disclose the number of civilians killed in such incidents. Police in Baghdad say they have received reports that U.S. forces killed 33 unarmed civilians and injured 45 in the capital between May 1 and July 12 -- an average of nearly one fatality every two days. This does not include incidents that occurred elsewhere in the country or were not reported to the police.
