I have not been following the war much, but this just shows that it's not over yet. I just hope there really is all the WMD that bush is talking about... but they did find some though. :unsure:

BAGHDAD - A U.S. soldier driving to his base at Baghdad International Airport was killed when his armoured Humvee hit a landmine on Thursday.

52 U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq since war officially ended
Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez, commander of ground forces in Iraq, told a news conference that one soldier was killed and two wounded in the explosion.

Earlier, Iraqi gunmen killed another U.S. soldier on a military base north of Baghdad. Two other Americans were wounded in that attack.

On Thursday, in central Baghdad, a man launched a grenade at a U.S. tank. The grenade missed.

In the past two weeks, 19 U.S. soldiers have been killed in Iraq, and 52 have died in guerrilla attacks since May 1, when the war officially ended.
