#2 Hurray for one side or the other!
(OK, I've totally lost track. Cats in a bag as far as I can tell. Except that each side is worse than the other)

#10 This Operation started a week ago. For the kind of razzia-dominant warfare they're waging, ~50 dead a day is a pretty big body count. The high water mark for US casualties in Iraq came to about 4 a day (average was about 1). During WWII, it was about ~630 a day (average was ~220).

#11 Isit ‘Volcano of Rage’ or 'Operation Peace Storm'?

Volcano of Peace would be a good band name. Violent and chaotic, yet at the same time, all peaceful and stuff.
