Things are getting better in Iraq

At least that what W and friends are telling us. I have a feeling they may be a bit off on this one:

Suicide bomb attacks kill 19 in Iraq

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Insurgents killed at least 19 people in three suicide car bomb attacks on Thursday, one targeting the bodyguards of Iraq's Kurdish deputy prime minister and another killing a deputy provincial governor...

Since a new Shi'ite Islamist-led cabinet was announced in late April there has been a sharp escalation in insurgent violence, and the number of suicide bombings has soared.

More than 700 Iraqis and 78 U.S. soldiers were killed in May, making it the deadliest month in Iraq since January.
