I dont know, but it doesnt seem likely that a medic should happen upon those statistics himself. I would say he was told that or given a piece of paper equivalent to mission statements you get at work from management. Still I can name a hundred good things that were created by the coalition invasion. On the other hand I can list one bad thing for every good. Its really hard to say, because the Iraqi people really needed our help, but it really doesnt seem worth it after you look at all the problems that came with it. I think we should change our strategy. Moving our forces to the remote countryside would be a good thing, I agree with Eames oOo: because then the irregulars wont be able to blend in with the civilian population. If they even think they can fight us conventionally, they would be annhiliated. But if you move out to the countryside, you let the enemy move in and recruit, bully, and fleece off the population even with a police force (especially one with questionable loyalties).
