A flurry of suicide bombings shakes Iraq - Africa & Middle East - International Herald Tribune: "BAGHDAD Suicide bombings continued in force here and in nearby locations over the weekend, with a devastating attack killing at least 70 people south of the capital as well as four explosions in the city area that led to 19 deaths. The bombings have killed well more than 100 people in a week and severely challenged the U.S. command.
Al Qaeda, which has sought to inspire suicide bombers to wage holy war in Iraq, claimed responsibility for the bombing campaign and promised more of the same.
Some 15 suicide bombers struck within slightly more than 48 hours in the capital and along the highway heading south - a region that Al Qaeda has declared it would use to seize control of Baghdad, Reuters reported."
