NEAR BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A suicide bomber has attacked U.S. army soldiers at Baghdad international airport, a U.S. Marine gunnery sergeant told Reuters on Saturday.There was no immediate word on casualties from the attack.
Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf threatened on Friday a "non-conventional" act against U.S.-led forces who have seized Baghdad airport, and hinted at suicide attacks while ruling out use of weapons of mass destruction.
An apparent suicide car bomb killed three soldiers, a pregnant woman and the driver of the car at a checkpoint northwest of Baghdad in the night from Thursday to Friday. Four U.S. soldiers also died in a bomb at a checkpoint last Saturday.
I was more concerned about one thousand suicide bombers all at once after the spew from their minister of misinformation yesterday.
May God bless and protect our troops our people, our allies and all innocent civilians...
Why is this guy still alive?
Maybe he was the suicide bomber.
