Six American soldiers were killed and four wounded in a house rigged with explosives during an operation in Baqouba, today, in addition to the ones this article mentions.

Yeah, the loonie surge is really working.

Hey, US-bandits, you won't even get close to the oil loot, as long as there's one Iraqi alive.

The other six today make a very good start for the year. Eleven plus six was it?, for 18 in total.

I was a bit dismayed when the strike rate went down towards the end of last year but this new trend, which hopefully will continue, is a good sign for the future if Irak.

After all, if they won't defend their own country against invaders, then who will.

Strike true resistance fighters.

Officially, 15 U.S. occupiers have been killed by hostile action in Iraq since Jan. 1.

That rate, if maintained, would only be at 45/month, a far cry from three times as much in peak hunting season.

Ideally, the resistance would learn to knock out arriving and departing troop transports out of the skies of Iraq -- that would be ''great'' for morale and would demonstrate to the world how little control the occupation actually has over event, in spite of neo-con drivel to the contrary.
