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.
