BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - Insurgents attacked a U.S. Army patrol Saturday in Baghdad, killing one American soldier and injuring nine others, the U.S. military said.


The unit came under coordinated attack, which included roadside bombs, small arms fire and rocket-propelled grenades, the military said. The statement did not say where the 7 a.m. attack occurred.

1. Sad
and the American public doesn't even care. Thousands of people are dying each month because of George W. Bush and the americans don't see it, don't think about it, don't care. They just keep shopping at Walmart like their leader told them to.

2. Should be interesting to see how they pull off the election in January
considering Baghdad is going the way of Fallujah and Mosul.

7. Guess its time to mount a Fallujah-like assault of Baghdad....
....oh wait, isn't that were our forces are concentrated? "Mission Accomplished" indeed!
