U.S. Military Personnel who died in German hospitals

or en route to German hospitals have not previously

been counted. They total about 6,210 as of 1 January,

2005. The ongoing, underreporting of the dead in Iraq,

is not accurate. The DoD is deliberately reducing the

figures. A review of many foreign news sites show that

actual deaths are far higher than the newly reduced

ones. Iraqi civilian casualties are never reported

but International Red Cross, Red Crescent and UN

figures indicate that as of 1 January 2005, the

numbers are just under 100,000.

Note: There is excellent reason to believe that the

Department of Defense is deliberately not reporting a

significant number of the dead in Iraq. We have

received copies of manifests from the MATS that show

far more bodies shipped into Dover AFP than are

reported officially. The educated rumor is that the

actual death toll is in excess of 7,000. Given the

officially acknowledged number of over 15,000

seriously wounded, this elevated death toll is far

more realistic than the current 1,400+ now being

officially published. When our research is complete,

and watertight, we will publish the results along with

the sources In addition to the evident falsification

of the death rolls, at least 5,500 American military

personnel have deserted, most in Ireland but more have

escaped to Canada and other European countries, none

of whom are inclined to cooperate with vengeful

American authorities. (See TBR News of 18 February for

full coverage on the mass desertions) This means that

of the 158,000 U.S. military shipped to Iraq, 26,000

either deserted, were killed or seriously wounded. The

DoD lists currently being very quietly circulated

indicate almost 9,000 dead, over 16,000 seriously

wounded and a large number of suicides, forced

hospitalization for ongoing drug usage and sales,

murder of Iraqi civilians and fellow soldiers , rapes,

courts martial and so on – Brian Harring
