Your figures do not include Afghanistan where deaths have not abated ;- they are currently 6-10 a month ; nor does it recognize that bad wounds as compared to deaths of US troops are still increasing nor does it take into account that more US troops are in secured bases . Iraqi deaths are very high , often 30 or so a day and sometimes reaching 80 or 90 in a day. On a comparable basis the USA would be experiencing 330 to 1000 deaths each day from terrorists and/or from people opposing one side or the other. Deaths of Iraqis are about double what they were about a year ago.
