Iraq Carnage Continues
The sister of Iraq Vice President Tareq al- Hashemi was killed by insurgents yesterday. Hashemi's brother was killed by insurgents on April 13. Last October the brother of the other Iraq vice president, Adel Abdul Mahdi, was also killed by insurgents.
64 American military personnel have been killed in the month of April so far. Two Italian soldiers and one Romanian soldier were killed by a bomb blast targeting their convoy yesterday.
Rummy and Rice can jet into Baghdad in the middle of the night for FOX News photo ops aimed at the home audience all they want. Bush can claim progress in the political process and pull 50,000 troops out of Iraq before the November midterms all he wants as well.
This thing is not going to end well no matter what.
