Petraeus: Tunisian militants attacking Iraq
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The top U.S. military commander in the Mideast says attacks in Iraq will continue for some time, and they may be the work of a network of foreign fighters from Tunisia. U.S. Gen. David Petraeus told a House panel Friday that four recent suicide bombers in Iraq were from Tunisia. He said officials have captured one who planned an attack. He said the Tunisian militants have returned to Iraq in the last several months as the number of Iraqi suicide bombers have dwindled. Petraeus cited some successes in Iraq, but he cautioned that progress continues to be fragile and reversible. Posted by: GolfBravoUSMC 2009-04-24 |
