Tech at the speed of Warp

We can debate was the War in Iraq necessarily, did they have WMD etc. But, one thing is non debatable, people died. Iraq War Coalition Fatalities web site displays animated flash map of Iraq with one day per frame. Its fast and a scroll bar would be nice as you cant stop or rewind the animation which is a shame as it is really nicely done. Thous features would add whole different dimension to the animation making it a tool. Only thing you can control is which country's fatality's in Iraq you would like to see animated on the map.

Not only instant death on the battlefield is recorded and displayed but also death from injuries in hospitals. You will recognize these, they appear on different locations and sometimes even on sea, presumably a ship.

Data is gatherd from icasualties.org and geographical locations from www.globalsecurity.org. s
