An unidentified stringer for AFP/Getty Images took this photograph of a man who was injured today in a bombing that killed dozens of people in Baqouba, Iraq.

Car bombs killed at least 60 people today in neighborhoods across Iraq. "In all more than 75 people were killed across the country in car bombs, shootings and clashes, a deadly day which underscores comments last week from the top U.S. officials in Iraq that overall gains in security are fragile and reversible," according to Reuters.

"We've put about $45 billion into Iraq's reconstruction . . . and they have not spent their own resources...They have got to have some skin in the game."
