Peace In Iraq - Civilian Death Toll Worst In A Year


The number of Iraqis killed in violence in June was the highest since the start of the year, according to figures released today.
A total of 271 people, 155 civilians, 77 policemen and 39 soldiers died in attacks last month, data compiled by the health, interior and defence ministries showed. The overall toll was the highest monthly figure for Iraq since September, when 273 Iraqis died. The previous high for this year was January, when 259 were killed.
A further 454 people were wounded in June, including 192 civilians, 77 police officers and 39 soldiers. Fourteen US soldiers also died last month, making it the deadliest month for American troops in three years.

    Iraq?
    Who is Iraq?
    What is Iraq?
    Where is Iraq?
    The media has followed their orders well.
    Nothing on MSM about this any where.
    Why?

    Now they are reporting that A/Q in Yemen have teamed up with A/Q in Somalia.
    And that they are threatening to attack the West.
    Sound familiar?

    And so it begins.
