Iraq insurgency: More doubleplusungood news 

Nice one, hitting a mosque. I'm sure that will cool the situation down. Heck, they weren't Christians anyhow.

U.S. forces battling Sunni insurgents in this violent city apparently hit a mosque filled with people Wednesday, and witnesses said as many as 40 people were killed.

It was unclear what hit the mosque. Until that incident, reports showed at least 30 Americans and more than 150 Iraqis were dead in the fighting for the city.

Anti-American violence intensified and spread to cities in northern Iraq on Wednesday as a U.S. helicopter went down and a Marine commander confirmed 12 of his men had been killed in fighting west of Baghdad.

I guess I can't use the word "clusterfuck" any more, though it's totally appropriate for what Bush is doing. It's not respectful enough of the dead, though.

Eesh.
