BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP)--Four American soldiers were wounded near the
northern city of Mosul, the military said Tuesday, as U.S. officials urged aid
groups to keep working in Iraq after suicide bombers struck the Red Cross
headquarters and three police stations in Baghdad.

The suicide attacks Monday killed about three dozen people and caused
foreign organizations to weigh their role in the insurgency-plagued nation. It
was the bloodiest day in the Iraqi capital since the end of major combat in
the U.S.-led war to oust Saddam Hussein six months ago.

Just hours after the attacks in Baghdad, two U.S. patrols were ambushed
Monday night near Mosul, Iraq's third-largest city, which in the past has
been relatively peaceful.

One soldier was wounded when insurgents attacked his convoy in
southeastern Mosul and three others were injured, one seriously, when
their patrol was attacked by rocket-propelled grenades and automatic
weapons in the town of Tal Afar, just west of Mosul, the U.S. command
said.

1,100 wounded. I guess these additional four wounded GI's brings that total down to 1,050?
<sarcasm off>

Wasn't it only a month ago that all the major networks had video of Gen. Abizaid saying they had almost 1,800 wounded?

there was a report about all the attacks in Baghdad. But of course, 'things are going well.'

There was a good news report from Mosul, where everything is really going well.

What will they say today????

Are the Kurds turning against us now?

Not enough sarcasm and cynicism left to meet the demand...

There was an interview with the editor of Iraq Today,Hassan someone, he basicly confirmed the WH spin of.....They are attacking us because of the progress and the Iraqis are happy with the US presense, blah blah blah.... Who thwe heck is the Hassan guy? Some CPA helper?
