5. 'BRING EM ON" shouted the AWOL CHIMPANZEE
These 2 troops will be anonymously snuck back in to Dover under cover of darkness, and buried W/O fanfare.

We will know nothing about them. The SHEEP have to vote for the CHIMPANZEE and these continual deaths will UPSET THE SHEEP </SARCASM>

6. Time for the NYTimes
to feature each and every of of them with a pic and four or five paragraphs on theirs lives, dreams, hopes, family etc. the honoring of the 9/11 folks was a most powerful and gripping testament.

7. I never see this in the mainstream media
Are these single or double deaths reported as a news item anymore?

8. These aren't the only casualties from that area lately
It makes you wonder if there is more going on in the Fallujah area than we have been told. From lunaville, listed as Fallujah or Al Anbar province (some are called non-hostile):

17-May-2004: 2 deaths
13-May-2004: 1 death
12-May-2004: 1 death
11-May-2004: 1 death
06-May-2004: 1 death
05-May-2004: 1 death
03-May-2004: 1 death
