Suicide bombing hits Najaf amid war strain
A car bomb attack near a Najaf roadblock killed the driver and four U.S. soldiers from the 1st Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division, with Iraq naming the bomber as Ali Jaafar al-Naamani. Iraq lauded the act as a martyrdom operation, while U.S. officials said suicide attacks would not alter allied Strategy though they warned of more careful protection at checkpoints.
