White House says Baghdad attacks strengthen U.S. resolve in Iraq

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House on Sunday condemned bombings in Baghdad that killed nearly 120 people and wounded 200, saying the attack only strengthened the United States' resolve to confront Islamic State militants.

"We remain united with the Iraqi people and government in our combined efforts to destroy ISIL," the White House statement said, using an acronym for the self-declared Islamic State.
