CNN is reporting the Pentagon is preparing to send as many as 15,000 more ground troops to Iraq if violence worsens. This news comes as the death toll from fighting yesterday has risen to over 100. At least 320 people were injured. Members of the Iraqi resistance launched coordinated uprisings in five cities: Baghdad, Mosul, Baquba, Fallujah and Ramadi. The Jordanian Abu Musab al-Zarqawi claimed responsibility for the attacks.
