Are Iraq Casualties About to Get Worse?
Posted by Ilan Goldenberg

Are U.S. casualties about to take a significant jump in Iraq?  Tragically, this might be the case.  Already April and May have been the most deadly 2 month period for American troops since the War began.  But it looks like the military and the Administration are preparing us for something much worse.  Today General Petraeus stated that “You have not even seen the start of real operations.”  Combine that with the President’s talk of a “bloody August” and it’s starting to become apparent that as the “surge” continues and the military tries to clear out some of the most dangersous areas in Bagdhad don’t be surprised if we see a spike in casualties beyond anything we’ve seen thus far.
