The U.S. military on Thursday reported eight recent troop deaths in Iraq.


Smoke rises from a car bomb explosion Thursday in Baghdad's Karrada district.

A U.S. soldier from Multi-National Division-Baghdad was killed Wednesday "during a small-arms fire engagement" in southern Baghdad, the military said.

Three Marines and one sailor assigned to Multi National Force-West died Tuesday during combat in Diyala province.

Also, a soldier in the Diyala capital of Baquba died Tuesday of wounds from a roadside bomb. Diyala province is the sprawling territory northeast of Baghdad on the border with Iran.

A soldier was killed Tuesday in Baghdad when a roadside bomb detonated during clearing operations, the military said.

And a Marine assigned to Multi National Force-West died Sunday "in a noncombat related incident" in Anbar province, it said.

The U.S. military death toll since the war began in 2003 stands at 3638; seven civilian employees of the Defense Department have also been killed.

Bush could give 2 shits if the soldiers killed were his own daughters.
