Iraq - Getting Better or Not?

If the rest of January goes the same as the first half, there will be about 54 hostile and 24 non-hostile deaths. The hostile death rate will be about the same as that for December and October, and less than that of August or September (although an increase in non-hostile deaths makes up for most of that). I'm not counting November, which has an unusually high death count because we chose November for the invasion of Fallujah. Does this mean that the war is getting better? Let's wait until the end of the month to discuss this.

That is all.
