BAGHDAD — Five American soldiers and two members of the Iraqi security forces were killed in a massive suicide truck bombing Friday near the headquarters of the Iraqi national police in the northern city of Mosul, a United States military spokesman said.
It is sad that these young American lives are lost, this does not exclude indifference to the Iraqi lives that are lost.
President Barack Obama made the right decision of more accelerated American combat troops withdrawal than of George W Bush. However, the planned with drawl this year amount to about nothing, just little cosmetic.
In the mean time negotiation is necessary for opposing parties who may inspire such violent acts.
