No.  The care which the American military takes to
protect its dead is, religious isn't the right word
(obviously it's religious) but also extraordinary.

It's also needless to point this out but - in _every
single engagement_ between American and Iraqi military
forces, the American forces annihilated their
opposition and barely even slowed down doing it.  Even
now, in urban fighting where much of their advantage
has been weakened, the kill ratio is apparently well
in excess of 10:1.  For the Iraqis to inflict a
defeat, or even major casualties, on American forces
in one battle would be a feat comparable to me walking
into Fenway Park tomorrow and hitting 3 home runs off
of Pedro Martinez.  For us not to hear about it would
be comparable to the Boston Globe not reporting this event.
