All Saddam, All The Time

In case you missed it in all the hubbub, the violence in Iraq does indeed go on:

Twenty people have been killed and 32 wounded by a car bomb outside an Iraqi police station west of Baghdad, an Iraqi police officer told CNN.

Sixteen policemen were among those killed in Sunday's explosion at Khaldiyah, 80 kilometers (50 miles) from the Iraqi capital, the officer added.
...
"About 8:30 (a.m.), a car bomb was detonated at Khaldiyah police station. We have some indication that it's a suicide bomber. But it's too early to give a final judgment," The Associated Press quoted Lt. Col. Jeff Swisher of the U.S. military as saying.

This has no relationship to Saddam's capture, but I wonder if there will be a spike of attacks like we saw after Uday and Qusay were killed. Probably not against our troops since the insurgents are focusing on softer targets now, but that doesn't minimize the long-term danger. The continued lack of stability and security is only going to make matters worse for everybody.
