  • Iraq War: Deadly Suicide Bombings and Election Uncertainty A series of devastating suicide bombings in Iraq killed 27 people, with one attack occurring near the headquarters of the Iraqi National Accord. The interim defense minister, Hazim al-Shaalan, suggested potentially postponing the upcoming assembly elections to ensure Sunni Muslim participation, highlighting the complex political tensions during the Iraq War.

The suspect sent fraudulent emails from a fake address ([email protected]) falsely informing recipients about the deaths of their relatives.
  • House Republicans Modify Ethics Rules At the request of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, Republican representatives voted to rescind a November 2004 rule that would have required leaders and committee members to step down if indicted, potentially protecting DeLay from potential legal consequences.
