"Nine months after U.S. and Iraqi troops killed an estimated 1,000 insurgents here in a battle that also cost more than 70 American lives, intelligence suggests that rebels are trying to filter back into the former capital of Iraq's guerrilla movement." (Notice that the LA Times story does not mention the number of Iraqi civilians killed. They just are not worth mentioning. Or you can do what most US media do: just lump them with the terrorists.)
