ANOTHER SUICIDE BOMBING IN BAGHDAD DESPITE "THE SURGE"

There is no let up to the violence in Baghdad despite the so-called success of "The Surge."

Another four people were killed when a suicide car bomber rammed an Iraqi army checkpoint in Ghadeer in eastern Baghdad.

Two soldiers were among the dead in that blast, which destroyed three houses and set several cars ablaze. Another 10 people were wounded.

US military commanders blame the al-Qaeda for most large-scale bombings in Iraq but there was no immediate indication of who was responsible for Monday's bombings or whether they were directly linked to Ahmadinejad's visit.
