U.S. Marine killed during western Iraq operation

[Secret Squirrel]

A U.S. Marine was killed during fighting in the town of Haditha, northwest of Baghdad, where U.S. forces are conducting a security operation, the military said on Saturday.

The Marine was killed on Thursday when a rocket-propelled grenade exploded near his position, a statement said.

The operation in Haditha, known as Operation New Market, is designed to hunt down militants hiding out in the lawless Anbar province, where the core of the insurgency is based. More than 1,000 Marines, sailors and Iraqi troops are involved...

[Pulsar]

Exactly why we should refrain from posting every single death here. It's a form of respect.

Shove it troll. He died in war and you say to not post his death? If you wanna save bandwidth, as you stated on the first page, then stop posting and stop clicking on threads whose titles indicate that a soldier/marine has died.

Shut the **** up.

good job guys, I was starting to think I was the only one thinking that bandwith comment was 'odd'

[NicNZ]

A death is news. Even if you have no sentiment left for those who are killed in Iraq or have no interest in casualty figures, you could at least take an interest in the circumstances (strategic or otherwise) in the soldier's death. Its a military forum; there are lots of things to learn from even simple threads such as this.

Pulsar, if it makes you feel any better..we won't waste any bandwidth to post when your banned. Some attitude you got there dude.
