BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A U.S. marine was killed in Iraq's Anbar province, where American and Iraqi forces have launched a major campaign to flush out insurgents, the U.S. military said Tuesday.

The marine was killed Monday during security and stability operations, the military said in a statement, without giving further details.

1. I'm starting to think that . . .
. . . every time an American soldier dies a Neo-Conservative "Angel" gets his wings.

3. What would Gannon have asked the President about this???

4. This can't be right
I don't understand. Hillary said that the insurgents were about ready to give up.

7. Yesterday when I shut down for the day
The count was at 1479, this morning I check icasualties and see 1483, and there is nothing anywhere else. Nothing has changed there, except maybe the pace of killing has accelerated, and we don't hear a damn peep.

I got frustrated and worn down, I would post on every one of these threads, but, I'm at a loss for words as well. What is there after all the dying that one can say differently?

I wish I was a religious person who could believe in punishment in eternity, but I'm not and it's getting to me. These murdering motherfuckers are going to bring about some of the worst mayhem and suffering ever seen by man, and they'll just die and crumble into nothing like the rest of us.

Fuck you bush*, fuck you and your whole fucking ugly family, you're a bunch of sick twisted bastards, and should suffer 100 times the pain of the least of us.
