If there are that many insurgents, then things are even worse than the news has reported. But then, these are the same statements made in Vietnam times. It was called body counts. If they were dead, then they must be VC. Certainly the press lies when they said "We had to burn the village to save it" and "We have met the enemy and he is us". Thirty some years later, with so many not then alive to watch the news, then another president can use the same lies all over again.
Either the number of insurgents has increased sharply, or the number of civilians killed is increasing. Which is it?
