Bomb blasts raise al Qaeda fears

Apr. 15 - Two car bombs have killed more than 50 people in Sunni Arab areas of Iraq.

The attacks took place in regions which had been relatively quiet compared to the Shi-ite south where battles have been raging. It's thought al Qaeda could be behind the attacks because of the Sunni Arab militant group's history of using car bombs. One car bomb killed 40 people and wounded 80 outside a provincial government headquarters in Baquba.
