Good thing this isn't sustained: U.S. military offensive fails to curb bloodshed BY PATRICK QUINN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BAGHDAD, Iraq -- The insurgents blindfolded 18 men, shot them in the head and decapitated three others in what has become a trademark of Iraq's insurgency. Five U.S. Marines were killed Friday in the same arid western region in a roadside bombing while conducting combat operations near a volatile Sunni town. The latest violence near the Syrian border comes despite a major American and Iraqi military effort to drive tenacious insurgents out of Anbar province, one of Iraq's most dangerous territories. Also Friday, in Baghdad a car bomb killed four men and wounded nine as they sat outside a takeout restaurant, waiting to pick up falafel sandwiches, a popular Arab staple made with fried chickpeas. The Iraqi victims whose bodies were found in the desert near the dusty, lawless frontier town of Qaim might have been from a group of Iraqi soldiers who were missing Wednesday after leaving their base en route for Baghdad for a vacation. Not one was in uniform and most were in casual clothes -- including a track suit.
