Three police officers and three assailants were killed in an attempted terrorist attack at the U.S. consulate in Instanbul, Turkey this morning. According to NBC News, several armed men opened fire on the police checkpoint at the complex's main entrance.
Istanbul Gov. Muammer Guler said, "There is no doubt that this is a terrorist attack." While no one has claimed responsibility, one of the surviving attackers was apparently trained in Afghanistan.
So glad we're in Iraq. Aren't you?
