FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


POTENTIAL BAGHDAD BOMBING CAMPAIGN BY IRAQI REGIME

Statement from U.S. Central Command Director of Strategic Communications Jim Wilkinson:

"U.S. Central Command has reliable information that the Iraqi regime may be planning to begin anonymous bombing campaigns in several Baghdad Shiite neighborhoods in an attempt to falsely accuse the Coalition of this destruction for propaganda purposes. This action would represent just the latest chapter in a long history of aggression against innocent Iraqis by a regime that uses violence, torture, murder and hunger as tools of terror and control."
