Casualties Of War

Here is an interesting chart. It shows that the past year NATO and the U.S. had more deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan then at any other previous time in the last 54 months. It was released last week.

9/07/2007 Coalition & NATO casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan; through August 2007, with 6-month moving average. Up significantly over the same period last year. 12 month total = 1,396 (highest so far)

A sobering counter to the cheerful Petraeus report.

Troops In Our Cities

So the Harpocrites are now preparing to put Canadian Forces in 14 major Canadian cities in order to quell civil disturbances;

"The units would be designed to react to domestic emergencies such as natural disasters or a terrorist attack."

Or a General strike, mass protests, a Quebec referendum on Sovereignty or possibly a socialist revolution.

It's not like it hasn't happened before......
