Iraq Coalition Casualties

I suppose this will factor into people's decisions. At least once we hit that magic 1000 number. I have heard a lot about that number. What is special about it? Noone should have died in Iraq as part of this crazy war, much less 1000 Americans. This 1000 number, of course, doesn't include the 65 Brits and 66 other "coallition" member countries' soldiers who have died or the over 6000 wounded and the tens of thousands of civilians killed or wounded, as well.

If we couldn't get more countries to actually send troops, I don't think we should have gone at all.
