Don’t Bomb Iran

After four years of denying it does body counts, it turns out that there is a Coalition database of dead Iraqi evildoers after all, reports USA Today.   They admit to killing over 19,000 militants  since the invasion, 4800 this year.   With over 10,000  taken into US custody this year, (to a total of 25,000 in August) plus others into Iraqi custody,  these figures would indicate over 15 thousand “bad guys” left the battlefield this year. Which is odd, as last year the US estimated there were 15 to 25 thousand insurgents in total - mostly Sunnis.   Body counts can be embarrassing.
