"U.S. Death Toll in Iraq Hits 2,000" - October 26th, Richard Boudreaux, Louise Roug, Paul Richter.

This was in my opinion the most important article I came across last week. It seems like only yesterday to me that we hit the chilling figure of 1,000 deaths in Iraq; now it is 2,000. Bush asks for patience, arguing that progress is being made and that these casualties aren't for naught. On the opposite side of things, protesters are doubling their efforts to try and end what they feel is an unnessecary war ASAP. The majority of deaths have come via car bombings. Regardless of ones feelings on the war, it is impossible not to feel some remorse over the loss of 2,000 American lives, especially when no end is in sight.
