1,000th U.S. Soldier Killed in Action


Who gives a crap about the other 275 U.S. soldiers who have been killed and the 9,765 U.S. troops who have been wounded since we invaded Iraq? They're just a bunch of meaningless numbers; a distraction from the terrific job we're doing over there.

And whatever you do, don't talk about the torture...
Two Defense Department intelligence officials reported observing brutal treatment of Iraqi insurgents captured in Baghdad last June, several weeks after disclosures of abuses at the Abu Ghraib prison there created a worldwide uproar, according to a memorandum disclosed today.

The memorandum, written by the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency to a senior Pentagon official, said that when the two members of his agency objected to the treatment, they were threatened and told to keep quiet by other military interrogators.
