BAGHDAD — The U.S. military says two American soldiers have been killed by small-arms fire in separate attacks in Baghdad.

The military says one Multi-National Division-Baghdad soldier was taken to a hospital after being shot in a northwestern area of the capital but succumbed to the wounds.

A second soldier was shot and killed later in eastern Baghdad.

Wednesday’s shootings bring the overall American death toll to at least 4,003 since the Iraq war started in March 2003. That’s according to an Associated Press count.

The soldiers’ identities have not been released because relatives have not yet been notified.

He's too busy denying anything is wrong.
