Soon after that the Pentagon <A href="http://www.tpmmuckraker.com/archives/002180.php">released</A> a report which cut the data in its own ways but didn't provide raw numbers. Unfortunately, the violence is so bad there's no way to hide it.  Still, we know that numbers showing the real levels of violence in Iraq aren't available.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://talkingpointsmemo.com/"><P>It made us wonder: how many times has the administration attempted to suppress government studies, statistics or other forms of once-public information that don't jibe with its policy?
