8. damn
I just finished added three to my website from 5/10. Then these. That brings the month total for Iraq to 41 (4 Afghanistan). That makes a projection for the month of 109. It would bring the average-per-month for the past six months to 100, up from 94 last month. That's because three of the seven highest months of the war are in the last six months. Of the sixteen months with 80 or more fatalities, six have been in the past six months. That 100 figure can be expected to keep climbing. Waiting 'til September to "see if it is working" is a death sentence for 400 or more soldiers.

In all probability some are yet to be reported for yesterday, and this won't be the last for today. So that projection for the month is conservative.
