Deadliest month in Iraq for US troops since September

"Three U.S. troops were killed in Iraq on Thursday, making April the deadliest month for U.S. servicemembers this year. Two Marines and a sailor were killed during operations against militants, according to a U.S. military news release. The military did not release the names of the troops. In April, 18 U.S. troops died in Iraq, according to a CNN count of reported troop fatalities. Sixteen of those troops died in combat."

Of course, now that we have an "anti war" Congress and an "anti war" president, no one cares.
