Yahoo! News - Five U.S. Soldiers Killed in Separate Iraq Attacks
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Guerrillas attacked U.S. troops in Baghdad's sprawling Shi'ite Sadr City slum district with rocket-propelled grenades on Tuesday, killing one soldier and wounding two, the U.S. army said.

The attack followed four separate roadside bomb blasts on Monday that killed four U.S. soldiers.

The deaths will raise the official Pentagon U.S. death toll to at least 993 since the start of the war in Iraq.

Depressing. How can America stomach this?
