Taking Stock in Iraq
Monday's suicide attack in Iraq was the deadliest since the fall of Saddam. At last count, 120 people -- mostly women and children -- died. The Pentagon says there are 60 attacks per day in Iraq launched by terrorists and insurgents. That's roughly the same number as before the Iraqi elections. And both the Pentagon and US intel sources in the past week seemed to come around to what Osama bin Laden has apparently already figured out -- the war in Iraq has created a recuiting bonanza for terrorists. Osama bin Laden has now fired off a message to terror honcho Abu Musab Zarqawi to try using some of the extra recruits to carry out attacks here in the US.
