CAIRO, Egypt - The new leader of al-Qaida in Iraq said in an audio message posted on a Web site Thursday that more than 4,000 foreign insurgent fighters have been killed in Iraq since the U.S.-led invasion in 2003. It was believed to be the first major statement from insurgents in Iraq about their losses.

"The blood has been spilled in Iraq of more than 4,000 foreigners who came to fight," said the man, who identified himself as Abu Hamza al-Muhajir - also known as Abu Ayyub al-Masri - the leader of al-Qaida in Iraq. The voice could not be independently identified.

Nope. Nobody ever said they each get their own virgins. I think they all stand in line and share...

This adds a whole new dimension to 'sloppy seconds'...

Great freeper minds think alike.

Last year on Memorial Day, friends who had bought a new home which is one home away from the wilderness invited us over a Labor Day cookout.

The area is infested with Yellowjackets, flies and other flying pests. Her husband bought an industrial strength bug zapper. Everytime a winged critter flew into it, the bug got zapped with a noise heard across their back yard.

I was grinning with each zap. Finally our hostess a recovering peacenik, who was a Brit before becoming a citizen here, asked why I was grinning.

So I told her about my friend who said to think about al Qaeda thug getting killed in Iraq everytime I heard a bug zapper go off.

She didn't speak to me for the rest of the day.

Then, there were the bombing attacks on London.

We were invited to another cookout on Labor Day at their house. This time everytime their bug zapper snapped and popped, she would smille and say, "Another al Qaeda killer just got zapped!"

By my estimates, http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=23950

we have killed 35,000 terrorists in both Iraq and Afghanistan---and that's a low estimate. Total wounded, dead, and deserted, approach about 600,000.

No military in history has ever sustained this level of losses and survived, let alone succeeded.

I agree with your opinion. I'm sure we've sent more to Allah than just 4000.
