Suicide bomber kills 7 in Iraq
21 minutes ago
BAGHDAD - The Iraqi military says a suicide bomber has attacked a checkpoint near Mosul, killing seven people and wounding 12. The U.S. military confirms the Wednesday night attack but puts the toll at five dead and 19 wounded.
The blast occurred in the Addayah area about 20 miles west of Mosul while Iraqi soldiers were checking vehicles. The dead include a woman and a 5-year-old child.
Mosul is believed to be the last major urban center where al-Qaida maintains a substantial presence.
Earlier Wednesday, Iraqi soldiers rolled through a Shiite militia stronghold in Basra, drawing scattered bombs and bullets that wounded a camera operator for a U.S.-funded TV station and narrowly missed the commander of government troops in the city.

2. No no no, this can't be right
Mosul is believed to be the last major urban center where al-Qaida maintains a substantial presence.
Iraq is chock-full of Al-Qaeda. Tree-top-tall, wall-to-wall with Al-Qaeda! John Sidney McCain III said it just a couple of days ao, so it MUST BE TRUE!

3. I wondered about that, too...
Still looking for TV news coverage of this. But I did find out that it's 80 degrees in Rome today...
