UPDATE:I want to welcome Ben's readers who have come to stare at the spectacle. You will notice that I did indeed make the comment that Ben quoted to direct you here.
In a not so clever way, I was referring to the kerfuffle during the past year about the charges against our soldiers flushing the Koran down a toilet. Anyway, the person I was replying to understood what I meant.
But, whether it

A sniper team was caught in Ghazaliya today. It may not seem like much, but it cheered me up to know that one more team isn’t going to be sniping our troops.
Press Releases - IA SOLDIERS FIND, DETAIN SNIPER TEAM IN GHAZALIYA
The soldiers stopped the vehicle with three suspects to conduct a preliminary search, which produced a pistol, expended 7.62mm rounds of ammunition and a video camera mounting bracket.

It seems that criticism of the study released by the Lancet medical journal isn’t confined to GOP shills.
In the light of such extreme and improbable implications, a rational alternative conclusion to be considered is that the authors have drawn conclusions from unrepresentative data. In addition, totals of the magnitude generated by this study are unnecessary to brand the invasion and occupation of Iraq a human and strategic tragedy. - Iraq Body Count
Maybe I’m just trying to reinforce my “political/ideological/ego trip*, but it seems the study doesn’t hold up well under criticism.

Clayton Cramer’s BLOG
the Lancet, the top British medical journal, has just published a paper claiming that we have caused the deaths of 2.5% of the population of Iraq…
Short of setting concentration camps, or intentionally spreading disease, or carpet bombing cities, I’m not sure that we could do that even if we were trying.
There comes a point in every statistical study when you need to do a sanity check.
“Gee, is it really true that birds can’t fly?”
“Wow! I had no idea that every third Californian is psychotic!”
“At this rate of growth, by the year 2050, every American will be named Miguel!”
I might argue that the Californian comment is provable, but the rest of his post is quite good.
My opinion of the statistics isn’t worth writing when Omar at IRAQ THE MODEL says it so much better.
To me their motives are clear, all they want is to prove that our struggle for freedom was the wrong thing to do. And they shamelessly use lies to do this…when they did not find the death they wanted to see on the ground, they faked it on paper! They disgust me…
This fake research is an insult to every man, woman and child who lost their lives.
Behind every drop of blood is a noble story of sacrifice for a just cause that is struggling for living safe in freedom and prosperity.

What a fascinating idea. Artists to record events. I like the idea of putting photographers like Staff Sgt. Klika into service, but this is a good idea too. A different perspective I would think. I’ll be following their blogs to see what they’re up too.
Noble Duty Milblogger Coalition - A Soldier’s Perspective - Marine Combat Artists
Sgt Battles and WO Fay are two Marine Combat Artists (only three Corps wide) serving Country and Corps creating some awesome works of art. Both of them operate blogs that I’ve read for some time now. They don’t post everyday, but you should add them to your RSS reader or check in on them from time to time. You’ll be happy you did.
