Default DEC 09 in IRAQ Best month yet!

As far as US combat related deaths goes that is. December 2009 had ZERO US combat related deaths!

So how many Hadjis did we kill? A month with no deaths is meaningless in war unless you can factor in the kills and compare it to the others.

It's winter time, Iraq is pretty much done and all the Afghan hodgies are bunkered up in the caves for the winter. Spring time is when things start picking up

Only 48 bad guys down in Dec? That's a bar fight not a war. I guess Obama's PR program is working.
