US convoy attacked in Ramadi
http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/887A5020-776D-4F2C-99DF-C38CA43F00A1.htm


An explosives-laden vehicle has exploded near a US military patrol on a highway 5km northwest of Ramadi, the Iraqi police said.

There was no word on casualties on Saturday, and US military officials could not immediately be reached for comment.

Al Qaida's wing in Iraq said its "martyrdom brigade" was behind the attack, according to a statement posted on a web site.

After the blast, US forces immediately closed off the highway, which links Iraq to Jordan, Aljazeera learned.

1. "Al Qaida's wing in Iraq" I wasn't aware that they had a "wing"
in Iraq, or that "Al Qaida" existed as an organized force.
