US Death Rate Down in Iraq Since January Elections

[Yurt]

The rate of U.S. deaths in the Iraq (news - web sites) war has fallen sharply since the historic January elections as American military leaders tout progress against the insurgency but warn of a long road ahead.


March is on pace for the lowest monthly U.S. military death toll in 13 months, and the rate of American fatalities has fallen by about 50 percent since the parliamentary elections in which millions of Iraqis defied insurgents to cast ballots.

Kathianne had posted that same item earlier. Terrific news! Hope it continues, and there's no reason to believe that it won't since the Iraqis have finally become involved in the war on terror and have started fighting back.
