Five U.S. soldiers killed in Baghdad bomb blast

17 minutes ago

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Five U.S. soldiers were killed on Thursday in
a roadside bomb attack on their patrol in Baghdad, the U.S. military
said on Friday, bringing the monthly death toll for U.S. forces in
Iraq close to 100.

In a statement, the military said seven other soldiers were wounded
in the apparent coordinated ambush, which included small arms fire
and rocket propelled grenade attacks.

"All of the wounded soldiers were evacuated to a combat support
hospital following the attack. One soldier has returned to duty,"
the statement said.

The deaths take the number of U.S. troops killed in Iraq to 99 so
far this month, according to icasualties.org, a Web site that tracks
military tolls.

4. Pile 'em high!

Grass Bush

Pile the bodies high in Austerlitz and Waterloo Iraq
Shovel them under and let me work--
I am the grass; bush; I cover all.

And pile them high in Gettyburg Baghdad
And pile them high in Ypres and Vedum Mossoul and Al Fallaujah

Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?

I am the grass bush.
Let me work.
