1. I wonder if this is the same bombing

as the one west of Fallujah. IF NOT... this could mean a very bad June.

2. I believe they are 2 different events

BAGHDAD, Iraq There are no reported casualties today in a roadside bomb attack on a U-S military convoy in Baghdad, but people were hurt last night in an attack on a Marine convoy in Fallujah.

This is without the casualty figures from the Fallujah attack. The one in Baghdad is a separate attack.
