No Security Changes Yet After Iraq Bombing

[cal04]

The U.S. military didn't immediately tighten security across Iraq (news - web sites) on Thursday in the aftermath of an apparent suicide bombing, but security experts said improved screening of visitors and fewer large troop gatherings would help counter insurgents' tactics.

"There's no excuse for what happened there, absolutely none," military security expert Mitch Mitchell said of Tuesday's deadly attack on a mess tent at a base near Mosul. "It does not cost that much to increase your force protection."

Some individual bases took steps such as posting guards outside mess tents. Military officials discussed ways to increase security for troops in Iraq but announced no major shifts Thursday.

"They're looking at it, but there's no word on any changes," Sgt. Patrick Murphy, a spokesman at U.S. military headquarters in Baghdad, said in a telephone interview.
