1. 2 of the 3 cable channels still talking about Michael Jackson
another is talking about the protests in Florida.

If one didn't know it he might think it was still the 1990's. :eyes:

2. BBC says two hotels -- sheraton and Palestine -- hit 90min ago
BBC reporter says 'absolutely terrifying'

don't have a link....

'area around the hotels is one of the most heavily fortified in all of Baghdad.'

rocket attack, not suicide/truck bomb.

3. Thanks for posting, Pete. Seems as if there's a media "gray-out"
on anything Iraq or political.

11. rockets fired from donkey carts!!
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2001797451_soldier21.html

KIRKUK, Iraq — Rockets apparently fired from donkey carts early today slammed into Iraq's Oil Ministry and two hotels used by U.S. workers and foreign journalists in downtown Baghdad. At least one man was injured.
The violence came a day after a truck bomb exploded near a Kurdish party office in the northern oil city of Kirkuk, killing five people and wounding 30 in an attack local officials blamed on Islamic extremists linked to al-Qaida. It was the second bombing this week against Iraqis who cooperate with the U.S. occupation.

Also yesterday, a bomb that was detonated as a U.S. convoy drove past killed one American soldier and wounded two near the restive Iraqi town of Ramadi, a military spokeswoman told Reuters. The attack brought to 180 the number of U.S. soldiers killed in action in Iraq since major combat was declared over May 1.

In two nearly simultaneous attacks just after 7 a.m., attackers led donkey carts carrying rocket launchers up to a street near the hotels and another outside the oil ministry, said Col. Peter Mansoor of the U.S. 1st Armored Division. He said eight rockets hit the oil ministry, although only two of them detonated. He also said one rocket hit the Palestine Hotel and another hit the next-door Sheraton.

But the impact from at least five rockets could be seen at the 18-story Palestine Hotel. One man was carried out on a stretcher, bleeding from his head. Medics had attached an intravenous tube.

13. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of propagandists.
Of course there's nothing to see here. No, the middle east is not melting down as we speak. Where did you get that info? Surely not from one of our many fine news organizations.
