BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- Car bombs killed five U.S. troops in Iraq, the U.S. military said Saturday, the latest in a string of such attacks at the start of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. Blasts also targeted five churches in the Iraqi capital.

Later on Saturday, a group identifying itself as the Islamic Brigade in Mosul claimed to have kidnapped two Turkish drivers on a highway near Mosul, the group said in a videotape it released. One of the kidnappers said the Turkish government must order the company where the two men worked to leave Iraq or they will be killed.

how he can look himself in the mirror every morning when he shaves is beyond me, actually I think he smirks with pleasure every time an American is blown up to pieces in Iraq. Like Malloy says, have I mentioned today how I hate this people?
