WASHINGTON - American soldiers in Iraq (news - web sites) have been dying at a rate of two a day since Iraqis regained political control on June 28 — a drop from the deadliest months of violence before the handover but still about the same rate overall as in the 16 months since the U.S. invasion.
The U.S. military death toll now has reached 900, and the number of American soldiers injured is approaching 6,000.
