One thousand casualties

Right Wing News has a piece that puts our passing of the one thousand casualties mark in the war to liberate Iraq into historical perspective. It does that by comparing our casualties in Iraq to those in other wars- and even points out that we lost over twice as many people at Pearl Harbor as we have lost in this entire war.

This is not to minimize the tragedy of a single death. But it is a useful counterbalance to the Leftist and media hysteria.
