An Iraqi man walks through rubble from a suicide truck bombing in the village of Qahtaniya, 120 kilometers (75 miles) west of Mosul, Iraq on Sunday, Aug. 19, 2007. More than 400 people died and 400 were wounded last week in a string of coordinated suicide truck bombings, making it the worst terrorist attack since the beginning of the war. The victims of the attack, which the U.S. blamed on al-Qaida, were members of the Yazidis, a small Kurdish sect that has been the target of Muslim extremists who label it blasphemous.
BAGHDAD --
A roadside bomb killed the governor of the southern Muthanna province on Monday, police said, the second assassination of a top provincial official in just over a week.
