Haven't seen that stat anywhere. From what I understand, the butcher's bill looks something like this:

US combat deaths : ~10
US prisoners: 6
Non combat deaths: ~5

Brit non combat deaths: ~12
Brit combat deaths: ~5

Iraqi prisoners: ~3000
Iraqi deaths: ?????

Even if the deaths are that high, all I would have to say would be that it shouldn't be unexpected. The gulf war was fought with far less regard for the people of Iraq, a fact that makes it far easier to just pound the $hit out of the enemy at range with explosive weapons (bombs et al). Now, the kid gloves are on, because we don't want a phyrric victory. Like it or not, when we fight like that, the danger for our side goes up.
