Suicide attacks outpaced car bombings almost 2-to-1 in May, according to figures compiled by the U.S. military, The Times and other media outlets. In April, there were 69 suicide attacks, more than in the entire year preceding the June 28, 2004, hand-over of sovereignty. 
U.S. officials and Iraqi analysts say the insurgents' resources are increasing on several fronts: money to buy vehicles and explosives, expertise in wiring car and human bombs and intelligence leaks that help them target U.S. and Iraqi forces. 
Coalition officials acknowledge, however, that the numbers show an Iraqi-dominated insurgency. Fewer than 5% of those killed or captured were foreigners, one official noted. He also described the influx from abroad as making up a "very, very small part" of the estimated 12,000 to 20,000 insurgents.

    Oh, I've no doubts whatsoever that you do indeed "pray," silly little troll-boy...

To: Doofer
    You are right. The word "fewer" does not even appear in the article. 
 
The article cites sources which contend that most bombers are foreign.
 
To: Doofer
    Perhaps the original LA times post did refer to "fewer" and "5%". However, in that case, the Times chose to pull it. Cause it isn't there now!

 So it looks like the LA Times did retract that portion of the story but the Seattle Times is still running the original.
