he is pulling us into baghdad for something

It definitely is eerily easy to roll on through Iraq as the troops are. But I'm certain that all the troops out there are aware of the possibility that something will hit them at any time. Of course, complacency may inadvertently set in after a few days of very little opposition.

But if SH and his rotten sons are incapacitated, then it's less likely that there will be much in the way of coordinated attacks on the coalition forces. Let's hope we can knock some sense into the Iraqi generals' heads with the bombing tonight.

A terrorist attack in northern Kuwait has left 10 American soldiers wounded. The attack occurred at Camp Pennsylvania near the Iraqi border.

Jim Lacey of Time Magazine is reporting that at least 10 have been wounded during a terror attack on a U.S. camp in northern Kuwait. At this point, it appears two grenades were rolled into leadership tents.

Lacey said that six of the men were injured seriously. As he spoke with CNN, gunfire could be heard in the background before the line went dead.

U.S. military officials are reporting that some troops were wounded after the camp of the 101st Airborne Division was attacked with grenades and small arms fire.

The 101st Airborne Division, also known as the Screaming Eagles, are equipped with a fleet of Apache and Black Hawk helicopters. Most of the division has already entered Iraq.

Four other American soldiers were wounded in central Iraq hours earlier. A reporter from Britain's Sky TV said the reconnaissance scouts were ambushed while driving Humvee jeeps at the head of the column.
