ungrateful Iraqis: Body Count in Baghdad Nearly Triples |
IT'S TERRIBLE ...BUT IT'S ALSO FUNNY TO LISTEN TO THE AMERICAN CLOWNS ...
BAGHDAD, Sept. 7 -- Baghdad's morgue almost tripled its count for violent
deaths in Iraq's capital during August from 550 to 1,536, authorities said
Thursday, appearing to erase most of what U.S. generals and Iraqi leaders
had touted as evidence of progress in a major security operation to restore
order in the capital.
Separately, the Health Ministry confirmed Thursday that it planned to
construct two new branch morgues in Baghdad and add doctors and refrigerator
units to raise capacity to as many as 250 corpses a day.
The morgue expansion plans and the final body count for August show the
dramatic surge in violence in Baghdad since U.S.-led foreign troops entered
Iraq in 2003. Baghdad's morgue chiefly handles unidentified gunshot victims,
now predominantly shot execution-style and often found with hands bound and
showing signs of torture.
