4,000 and 25
Posted by Ilan Goldenberg

It's a huge number.  It's not a number you can even begin to wrap your head around, and what it means for those 4,000 families not to mention the 30,000 wounded and their families.  And it's only a fraction of the number of Iraqis who have been killed.   

While the number is historically significant, as Brandon Friedman over at VoteVets points out, in terms of the future and the physical situation on the ground perhaps the more relevant statistic is the 25 Americans killed in the last two weeks.  That would be the deadliest two weeks for the U.S. military since early September.
