426 US Soldiers Annihilated in Iraq in November

As a series that began last month with the Mujahideen “harvest” in Iraq in October 2006 , the Jihad Media Battalion issued on Monday, December 4, 2006, its November 2006 edition in a one-minute video. Unlike the last that tallied casualties inflicted by the Islamic State of Iraq upon the enemy, this compilation features numbers from all the insurgency groups.

From the communiques in which exact losses were written, the Battalion reports that of the 2,736 enemy deaths, 1,068 were al-Mahdi Army members, 426 were US Crusaders, and the third largest portion are Iraqi police. Mechanism losses, such as aircraft and vehicles, in addition to spoils and “non-classified” items are also included.

Prominent events that occurred in November are placed in the news crawler at the bottom of the video, such as: 807 operations that did not include the number of losses, destruction of the American F-16 airplane, and Abu Hamza al-Muhajir, the Emir of al-Qaeda in Iraq, placing 12,000 Mujahideen at the disposal of Abu Omar al-Baghdadi. The group also mentions British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s referral to the War in Iraq as a “disaster” as a acknowledgement the Mujahideen are victorious, the SITE Institute reported.
