The numbers come from the interim Iraqi government who you can't exactly accuse them of wanting to smear the war effort altough they probably do want to differentiate themselves from the Americans. Perhaps they are suspicious, but arguing over body counts isn't the intended effect of the post. Do you have any insights into winning the hearts of the Iraqis?
