Blast Kills more than 20 at U.S. Base in Iraq.

An attack at an American military base in Mosul today killed more than 20 people and wounded more than 60, among them American and Iraqi soldiers and American and foreign contractors, the military said today.

Brig. Gen. Carter Ham, who briefed reporters from Mosul, said the cause was an explosion at a dining facility but gave no further details on the means of the attack or of the casualty toll in terms of numbers of dead or wounded or their nationalities.

Support our troops, get them the hell out of there now.
