I loved this answer when I read it also. "Mudville Gazette."

Casualties of War

If you're a citizen of an occupied nation considering ambushing contractors and mutilating their corpses you may want to think about this:

Asked about the report of 600 dead, Marine Lt. Col. Brennan Byrne said: "What I think you will find is 95 percent of those were military age males that were killed in the fighting."

"The Marines are trained to be precise in their firepower .... The fact that there are 600 goes back to the fact that the Marines are very good at what they do," he said.

And that's the attitude America expects from it's military leaders, or at least had better. Or at least once did. Do they still?
