Iraq

The Iraqi government aired the confession of a man who claimed the Ba’ath party was behind last week’s attacks in Baghdad that killed more than 90 people. Insurgents killed a policeman in Mosul and an Awakening official in Diyala, targeted a tribal leader for assassination near Fallaujah, and bombed the home of a policeman in Fallujah.
