#2 Does anyone have a body count for dead Talibunnies since the vaunted Spring Offensive began back in April of 06? I'm guessing it's somewhere at around 2,000 dead fluffy bunnies.

#4 TomPa:

Thanks. I've actually linked to that site and hope it is authoritative. I'm guessing it is!

#5 More authoratative than the AP, Roooters, and the UN Convention on the Counting of Bodies of Misplaced Freedom Fighters.

#6 I'd love to quote this source, but it's Paki. There was a raid, but the ISAF press release does NOT quantify the number of Talibs killed.

I also don't quote the Afghan police on their "luck" with the Talibs.

I spend quite a bit of time each day checking with multiple parts of the military for info. There is little coordination and, especially with NATO, they have a tendancy to release information days after it happened. So, I'm constantly going over the same stuff looking for new data.
