Gunmen ambushed a bus full of Iraqis working for the U.S. military, killing 17 civilians and wounding 13 in Tikrit on Sunday, while a car bomb and a gun attack killed four members of the Iraqi security forces elsewhere in northern Iraq.
The violence was the latest in a string of deadly attacks targeting Iraqi forces and others allied with the U.S. military that have killed at least 68 Iraqis since Friday. The surge in bloodshed has come despite major U.S. offensives last month to suppress guerrillas ahead of elections set for Jan. 30. (AP)
Don't worry. Everything will be just fine on January 31st...and if you can't handle any bad news until then, just do as Jerry Falwell does:
"I think [the war] is going well. CNN doesn't always get it right, but it goes pretty well if you watch it on FOX."(Media Matters)
