Baghdad Bombings Kill 22

HeadlineApr 29, 2005

In Iraq at least 22 people have been killed today and dozens more injured in a series of bombings in Baghdad. The attacks come a day after Iraq’s interim National Assembly approved part of the government’s new Cabinet lineup. Last night President Bush refused to lay out any timetable for the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq. Bush said “I believe we’re making really good progress in Iraq.” Earlier in the week, however, Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Richard Myers admitted the Iraqi resistance was still able to carry out as many attacks as a year ago.
