Wow......somebody says "progress" and the civil war is over? Or what metrics do you rely on?


(CBS/AP) A roadside bomb killed five American soldiers Monday in Iraq's northern Ninevah province, the U.S. military said.

The military did not provide more details, but the attack occurred days after a massive house explosion followed by a suicide attack left some 40 people dead in the provincial capital of Mosul.

Two U.S. soldiers were killed in separate bombings in Baghdad, the military said Sunday.

One Multi-National Division - Baghdad soldier died Sunday after the soldier's vehicle was struck by a roadside bomb in northeastern Baghdad, according to a statement.

Another soldier was killed Saturday by a bomb during a foot patrol near Kazimiyah, a predominantly Shiite neighborhood in northern Baghdad, the military said separately.
