WASHINGTON - Stung by Sen. John McCain's comparison of the Bush administration's openness about progress in Iraq to the government's credibility gap during the Vietnam War, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice said Monday that the parallel simply isn't so.

"I believe we've been putting out a lot of information about what is happening in Iraq," Rice said during a question-and-answer session with The Arizona Republic and several other newspapers.

...But the Republican McCain, in comments published in the cover story of the Nov. 3 issue of Newsweek, which hit newsstands Monday, compares the situation in Iraq to the wartime situation in Vietnam, where as a captured Navy pilot he survived years of imprisonment.

"This is the first time that I have seen a parallel to Vietnam in terms of information that the administration is putting out vs. the actual situation on the ground," McCain is quoted as telling Newsweek.

Fresh suicide attack in Iraq

BBC -Tuesday, 28 October, 2003, 13:04 GMT

A suicide bomber has blown up a car in the flashpoint Iraqi town of Falluja, killing himself and at least four civilians, witnesses have said.

The attack took place near the main police station in the town, about 50 kilometres (30 miles) west of Baghdad.

It happened a day after a wave of suicide attacks in Baghdad in which at least 35 people were killed and more than 200 injured.

The BBC's Jill McGivering in Baghdad says the growing pattern of suicide bombings has heightened speculation that foreign fighters may be carrying out the attacks.
