Baghdad Security Crackdown Update!
From ABC News:
"A loud explosion shook the area near the U.S. embassy in Baghdad's heavily fortified international Green Zone in central Baghdad on Monday, witnesses said.
The cause of the blast was not immediately clear, but the area is frequently attacked by mortars and rockets, which usually cause few casualties.
A rocket landed close to a building where U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki were holding a news conference in the Green Zone last week [see video above].
Monday's blast took place just hours after outgoing U.S. ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad told reporters that he was cautiously optimistic about the future in Iraq."
