>> What if they gave a war and nobody came? Watch for the 60's nostalgia. I think most US casualties occurred when US kidnap raids were going into neighborhoods to abduct people to take to the interrogation/torture places. It is not co-incidental that the highest US casualties came in November '03, when apparently the US commander Sanchez was insisting on extracting information from prisoners. I guess he went 3 times to Abu Graib to make sure they were doing it his way. It was hard to see what caused the increase in resistance. But in retrospect, since people in Iraq likely knew what was happening, some decided to fight to death than be taken to the torture prisons.
