(Reuters) The Saddam verdict will be delayed a few days after fears that any conviction might be viewed as a US political ploy just two days before US midterms.. (It was originally scheduled for Nov. 5.)
(Reuters) A moderate Sunni politician says, "brutal US tactics" are swelling the ranks of Al Qaeda in Iraq. (I found it interesting that his complaint was not that they were turning violent, but that they were choosing Al Qaeda over "the nationalist resistance.")
(AP) The US cannot account for 14,030 weapons purchased for the ISF.
