92 killed so far.

 AGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- The death toll from Thursday\'s wave of attacks in Iraq rose to 92, officials said, as a Web site said a group linked to al Qaeda associate Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was responsible.

Wounded in the series of bombings and ambushes -- which struck Mosul, Ba\'qubah, Ramadi, Baghdad and Fallujah -- numbered 285, according to Iraqi police and health officials.

At first I thought they meant 92 US soilders had been killed, but luckily I believe the US death total has been minimal. But still killing is bad no matter who get\'s killed.

Bush stated this would happen the closer we get to the handover deadline which is in 6 days.

Seems like the Shihite (sp?) militants that were attacking the US are now being told by their religious leader to not attack the US forces and instead, attack the Sunni terrorists blamed for the waves of attacks. Strange world we live in, I tell ya.
