BAGHDAD: US forces in Iraq faced fresh violence and a showdown with armed militias in the drive to clean up what President George W Bush called the "central front" in the war on terror.

Iraqi guerillas attacked an American patrol in Baghdad with explosives as soldiers were driving out of a tunnel in the centre of the city, the military said. The attack wounded two soldiers, damaged two Humvees, one of which turned over and caught fire.

Elsewhere, a former Iraqi intelligence agent was arrested in Najaf on suspicion of involvement in the recent car bombing which killed at least 83 people in the holy city, a member of the local police said.

A merchant from Najaf informed on the man, whose job under the ousted regime of Saddam Hussein was to write reports about Iraqi dissidents in Syria, the police official said.

So who said there have been no US casualties in the last 7 days? I guess that was just another load of bull.

1. From now on, there will be no more US casualties in Iraq.

Only injuries. Fatal ones, but that litle detail won't be mentioned.

2. I actually think they were talking about fatalities

9/2 Christopher Sisson from Oak Park, Illinos was killed.

I just saw a paratrooper on CNN who had lost his leg and his eyesight; still talking about how leaving Iraq would be a failure. So sad how propagandized some of these troops are.

3. if we leave

he lost a leg and his eyesight for nothing, and that is indeed sad.

4. It doesn't matter whether we leave or not. He lost them for nothing.

EVERY ONE of the lost soldiers have died in vain...and the vanity is that of the goddamned son of a bitch squatting at 1600 Pa. Ave.
:grr:
