US forces destroy bomb factory north of Baghdad
US troops killed five insurgents and destroyed a bomb making factory north of Baghdad as clashes in a Sunni region produced at least nine deaths. Officials cited a death by own action car bombing using two children, raising concerns about insurgent tactics amid a six week security crackdown. Tariq al Hashemi urged talks with insurgents excluding al Qaeda in Iraq, while Maj. Gen. Barbero described the car bombing and its deadly toll in Azamiyah and Shaab.
