U-S official confirms rise in sectarian violence

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - A day after police discovered the bodies of 65 torture victims in and around Baghdad, another 20 men were found dumped on the streets of Baghdad today.

The top U-S military spokesman in Iraq confirmed a spike in sectarian violence around the capital over the past 24 hours.

Major General William Caldwell says there was an increase in "murder-executions," probably from an increase in sectarian violence.

Car bombs and drive-by shootings today also left at least 15 people dead. The deadliest attack was a car bombing near the central passport office that killed nine.

1. "probably from an increase in sectarian violence." I am beginning

to wonder if even the Bush WH can hold Irag together till after Nov. 7th.

2. Past 24 hrs! BS. More US military was sent to Baghdad two months

ago because of escalation of sectarian violence.

Rummy , KKKarl and the rest of the criminals felt that out of control violence might look bad in the run-up to November so they sent in more US troops to calm things down. Thus far it appears that the troop movements, not unpredictably, have had the opposite affect.

What a load of clueless criminal freeper morans we have leading this country.

3. It is always a "rise in sectarian violence"

They must've used that phrase to describe the situation in Iraq hundreds of times.
