I fear a report on significant US soldier casualties may be coming...

RAMADI - Three car bombs exploded near U.S. forces in Ramadi, 110 km (70 miles) west of Baghdad, in an apparently coordinated strike by insurgents, police and witnesses said. They said a car blew up next to a U.S. convoy, damaging a U.S. vehicle and wounding three bystanders. A suicide truck bomber rammed a building often used by U.S. troops, bringing down part of the structure. As U.S. reinforcements arrived, a third bomb concealed in a car parked near a mosque went off, a reporter for Reuters said. U.S. forces in Ramadi did not immediately reply to a request for information.

prayers. My business partner's son joined the Marines and he left for San Diego on Sunday. Love to you, Dana ; )

3. I fear the same when I see there is no immediate reply from
any U.S. forces spokesperson. Having three bombings in close proximity and timing sounds very ominous to me.
