According to the Associated Press the United States suffered almost twice as many military casualties as the Iraqi army did in March.
Associated Press count
U.S. military: 81 deaths
Iraqi military: 44 deaths
Iraqi figures: 165 Iraqi police deaths
AP count: 3,246 U.S. troops killed in Iraq since March 2003
Iraqi civilian deaths: 1,872 says the Iraqi ministry

So if the Bush clan says that the ' surge ' is working in Iraq, they must be referring to the deaths of the U.S. troops being higher than the Iraqis.
If more troops are getting killed than are the Iraqis,then a few things are going on here.
1 ) Our troops are showing up for work and the Iraqis aren't.
2 ) Our troops are not quite as good as the Iraqi troops are
We all know that the United States troops are showing up for work and that they are doing the majority of the fighting. That is a given no matter what those hoods in the White House and Fox News will tell you.
We certainly know that the United States troops are much better than the Iraqi troops will ever be, so that leaves one other choice.
The Iraqi troops aren't doing jack shit! Period! If the Iraqis were taking the lead in their own country then they would be pushing up daisies at a higher rate than U.S. troops are.
We are slightly better armed and equipped ( ? ) than our host is yet we still get knocked off more than they do? There is something wrong with this picture.
The word is that the United States is going after Iran very soon ( April 6 ), and if this is even close to right, which I doubt, then we will all get to watch the presidents ' surge ' in action.
More ' surge ' in troops and more ' surge ' in U.S. casualties.
Thanks George!
