Green Zone Bombed in Iraq (Again)
Well, I guess it's just the "one or two bombings a day" that make the news, isn't it Mrs. Bush?
So today, the Iraqi Parliament building's cafeteria was bombed at the height of the lunch hour, killing at least two members of the government and injuring an unknown number more. Numerous government vehicles were seen shortly thereafter racing away from the building, armed security forces clinging to the sides to prevent any ambushes.
In addition, a major bridge in Baghdad was also destroyed by a truck bomb on the same day. All this has happened SINCE the start of the push to secure Baghdad itself (let alone the rest of the country). It would stand to reason that more enemy forces would converge on the largest concentration of American and Iraqi troops, but it should also stand to reason that these troops would be doing a better job of protecting Baghdad.
Unless, of course, the infusion of 20,000 additional troops really was so miniscule that it would make little to no impact on the security of our people there.
