BAGHDAD -- Rockets or mortars slammed into the U.S.-protected Green Zone and a military base elsewhere in Baghdad on Sunday, killing three American soldiers and wounding 31, an official said.

The attacks occurred as U.S. and Iraqi forces battled Shiite militants in Sadr City in some of the fiercest fighting since radical cleric Muqtada al-Sadr ordered a cease-fire a week ago. At least 16 Iraqi civilians were killed in the

fighting, according to hospital officials.

1. So, we bomb the heck out of Sadr City

and they retaliate by bombing the Green Zone. Yep, should take about a hundred years.

2. Can't them Iraqis just get over Shock and Awe?

I couldn't either.
