Business falling in Iraqi hospitals

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A row of beds lies empty in the emergency ward of Baghdad's Yarmouk Hospital. The morgue, which once overflowed with corpses, is barely a quarter full.

Doctors at the hospital, a barometer of bloodshed in the Iraqi capital, say there has been a sharp fall in victims of violence admitted during a seven-month security campaign.

This could mean that the surge strategy is working.

Or, it could mean that Gen. Petraeus has been waterboarding Iraqi doctors to get them to offer false reports so he can continue his insane escalation of the war. Right, Duane?
