IRBIL, Iraq, Sept. 10 (UPI) -- A suicide car bomber struck the U.S. intelligence headquarters in Irbil, Iraq, killing three, the London Guardian reported Wednesday.

A Kurdish security official said three Iraqis were killed, including a 12-year-old boy. Six Americans were wounded.

Forty-one Iraqis were hurt, the official said, adding the suicide bomb vehicle was packed with dynamite. He said several homes in the neighborhood, which was cordoned off by U.S. soldiers, were destroyed.

But wasn't Rummy just saying how things were calming down? Very sad indeed that people still believe anything touted by this maladministration.

4. Isn't broadcasting, "Iraq Occupation: __ Days without a U.S. Death!"

essentially the same as saying "Bring 'em on"?

Why are the chickenhawks & media so quick to gloat about a few days without a reported death?

5. Oh, Rummy will claim that nothing happened because ...

no U.S. soldiers were killed.
