iCasualties.com reports and visualizes Iraq war deaths
iCasualties.com is a website that reports on and visually depicts Coalition deaths as well as reported Iraqi military/police and civilian deaths. Though the death count for Iraqis is markedly lower than that controversial paper that was released and later attacked for being overboard, the site admits that it is an unfortunately incomplete list as it reports "reported" deaths and doesn't extrapolate non-reported deaths.
Still, it is reported to be a significantly accurate measure of coalition/contractor deaths and injuries.
Of note is the stark and sudden decrease in coalition military deaths since the surge began. Iraqi civilian deaths seems to have also decreased if to a smaller extent. In fact, Coalition military deaths were the lowest this month since the beginning. Hostile deaths are also WAY down.
