That statistic is from the Baghdad morgue and the Iraqi Health Ministry.
It's a breaking story in the LA Times, among other places:

Iraqi civilians killed this year by Islamic Terrorists
3,148

Yes, it is also sad that we made Iraq into a killing field for al Qaeda
and sectarian violence. It didn't have to be that way. It's a result of
incompetence and negligence.

Wow! The LA Times? Well, there's an unbiased source for you. Why didn't you
go all out and quote the NY Times or Geraldo?

The information comes from the Baghdad morgue and the Iraqi Health
Ministry. The LA Times is merely reporting it.

BTW, The new Iraqi government is calling for a timetable for the
withdrawal of American troops. I couldn't agree more, and the sooner the
better.
