I don't know what else to say. We keep hearing from the administration that we are making progress, but we keep seeing things like this that indicate things are getting worse. What a complete mess.
- A suicide bomber is believed to be behind Tuesday's attack that killed 22 people at a U.S. mess hall in Iraq, Gen. Richard Myers, the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, said Wednesday in Washington.
Initial reports speculated that it may have been a rocket attack, but Task Force Olympia spokesman Lt. Col. Paul Hastings said Wednesday "the cause is unknown." FBI forensic experts were flown to the scene of the blast at Camp Marez outside Mosul.
The investigation is continuing.
