Bombs Kill 6 in Baghdad; 15 Die Elsewhere
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Seven car bombs exploded across the capital Monday, killing at least six people and wounding dozens, as politicians met to try to finalize a new Cabinet. Police discovered the bodies of 20 Iraqis — apparent victims of sectarian killings the United States hopes the new government can end.

Elsewhere, four roadside bombs, six drive-by shootings and a mortar round killed a total of 15 Iraqis in Baghdad and other areas, police said.

The violence underlines the challenges Prime Minister-designate Jawad al-Maliki faces as he begins the tough task of assembling a Cabinet out of Iraq's Shiite, Sunni and Kurdish parties. Al-Maliki has 30 days from April 22 to present his Cabinet to parliament, but a top Shiite official, Ridha Jawad Taqi, said he expected the lineup to be finalized within 15 days.

On Monday morning, political parties met separately in Baghdad to discuss proposed Cabinet ministers and were to meet as a group later in the day, said Kamal al-Saeidi of al-Maliki's Dawa party.
