Four U.S. Soldiers Killed in an Explosion

At least 45 Civilians and four U.S. soldiers died across Iraq yesterday. The incidents mean that at least 3,679 members of the US military have died since the Iraq war started in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count. The figure includes seven military civilians. Twenty this month already.

Meanwhile, in a village in the north of Iraq, a suicide bomber blew up a truck packed with explosives, unleashing a huge blast that killed 30 people and destroyed a number of homes. Sectarian fighting in other areas claimed the lives of at least 15 Iraqis. Also, see as British leave, Basra deteriorates.

Can we really trust this Congress to end the Occupation of Iraq? Can we trust this Congress at all anymore? There is no respect for the Constitution, no respect for the fallen.
