    Say it ain't so Dan, I thought it was the Iraqis doing all the bombings...

    Four Palestinians were arrested in connection with a deadly bombing in eastern Baghdad the day before, Iraq's Interior Ministry said Friday.

    Twelve people were killed and 56 were wounded in the morning attack, Iraqi police said.

    My claim remains the same. There are foreign insurgents in Iraq, it has become the training ground for future terrorists, but for the most part we are fighting Iraq nationalists who just want us gone.

    Just prove that Iraq is a bigger mess than Dubya wants to admit.

    Yeah, the terrorists shooting at heavily armed and trained US troops sucks. It'd be a much smaller problem if they were running around here in the US blowing up and hijacking planes.

    Good ing call.

    No, just that it isn't an internal insurgency as much as it's an external terrorist element just stirring .

    Did I miss something? When did Iraq attack the U.S.? AH must have missed that report that showed that international terrorism has gone up since the Iraq war began.

    when ANY COUNTRY attacks u.s. interests, they attack the u.s.

    and technically iraq never stopped attacking us since desert storm I. they continued to light up planes in the northern and southern no fly zones. the media never really talked about it. if they had shown everytime that our planes were lit up by radar or fired up maybe more countries would have been in support of the war. probably not france or germany bc they were making too much money from saddam

    If we have to import oil, they'll have to import terrorists.

    Apparently you did miss alot...

    Iraq attacked the U.S. in 1991 when it engaged our troops on the battlefield during our successful attempt to expel them from Kuwait.

    Iraq then set about systematically and continually attacking the U.S. by firing on U.S. military assets patrolling the no-fly zones for over a decade.

    There, all caught up?
