The attack is one of the deadliest against US forces
in the Iraqi capital since last summer's US troop surge.

It came hours after a leader of a Sunni tribal alliance
fighting al-Qaeda in Iraq was killed in a suicide bomb
attack at his home in northern Iraq.
Thaer Ghadban al-Karkhi died when a woman detonated an
explosives vest as he answered the door at his home
in Baquba.
His daughter and two guards also died.
Mr al-Karkhi was a member of the mainly Sunni Arab Awakening
councils, allied with the US military against al-Qaeda
in Iraq.
Sunni militias have been credited with helping to bring
down the level of violence in Iraq in recent months.
Most vulnerable
The US military told the BBC that the attack on its troops
took place in the Mansour district of the capital.

"Five soldiers paid the ultimate sacrifice on behalf
of the Iraqi and American people," said Col Allen Batschelet,
chief of staff of US forces in Baghdad.
"We remain resolute in our resolve to protect the people of
Iraq and kill or capture those who would bring them harm."
The strike takes the number of US troops killed since the
US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 close to 4,000, says the BBC's
Hugh Sykes in Baghdad.
RECENT US TROOP DEATHS
9 February: Four killed by roadside bomb north-west of Baghdad
28 January: Five killed by roadside bomb in Mosul
9 January: Six killed entering a booby-trapped house
north-east of Baghdad
As the invasion's five-year anniversary approaches,
many Baghdad neighbourhoods have witnessed security
improvements, with the number of attacks on American
soldiers significantly down from last year.
The bomber had targeted the US military at their most
vulnerable, as military patrols around the Iraqi capital
are often conducted in armoured vehicles, our
correspondent says.
But the US troops cannot function unless they get out of
their armoured vehicles and engage with the people, he adds.

Is Ron Paul still campaigning for president? Yes.
Ron Paul has tentative plans to campaign in Pennsylvania
and Kentucky.
Ron Paul will also likely appear in other states
that have remaining primaries.
The mass media monopoly-666-press is reporting that Ron Paul
has quit the race.
This is not true.
Ron Paul's video simply acknowledges that the campaign will
continue but will also transform into additional activities
such as education and supporting other candidates.
In Kentucky we just held precinct conventions and Ron Paul
Republicans won hundreds of precinct captains.
In Kyle Texas, Craig Young upset the establishment choice
for Republican County Chairman.
The Ron Paul Revolution lives on!
Victory comes in many forms.
Help shape what the Ron Paul revolution becomes.
