#1 It said in a statement Sunday that 6,097 targets have been hit since the start of air raids last summer. They include 77 tanks, 287 Humvee vehicles, 416 staging posts, 1,757 buildings, 1,330 fighting positions, 152 oil installations and 2,078 other various targets.

So I guess "targets have been hit" is a euphemism for "blew up $hit that we dropped and ran away from at the first whiff of trouble?" How do you lose a tank? And next time everyone goes all pansy, at least pour a jerry can of petrol in the Humvees first and burn them to the ground.
