NEWS IN BRIEF
FROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD, Iraq — On the last day of cam-
paigning, a roadside bomb killed four American
soldiers Tuesday and gunmen assassinated a candi-
date for parliament in this week’s election. A Shiite
politician escaped injury in a bombing south of
Baghdad.
The US. ambassador, meanwhile, said Tuesday

in the Thursday election. Al-Hashimi represents a
major Sunni Arab coalition.
Allawi, a secular Shiite, said an early U.S. with-
drawal “will lead to a catastrophic war.” And al-
Hashimi, whose party has been sharply critical of
the U.S. role, said he looked forward to “my coun-
try’s liberation” but not “to be followed by chaos.”
Allawi also said early U.S. withdrawal “will lead to
a catastrophic war.”
Al-Hashimi criticized President Bush for saying
the United States is fighting terrorism in Iraq.
“Why should Iraqis pay a bill for something they
have nothing to do with?” said al-Hashimi, a candi-
date for parliament. “Terrorism is not the problem
of Iraqis.”

Three of Iraq's leading politicians agreed Tuesday
that a speedy withdrawal by foreign troops before
Iraqi forces are ready would cause chaos.
But the three - former Prime Minister Ayad
Allawi, Kurdish leader Massoud Barzani and Sunni
Arab politician Tariq al-Hashimi - disagreed on the
description of U.S. and other foreign troops.
Barzani described them as “forces of liberation,”
while al-Hashimi said they were occupiers.

HOUSTON — Global ener-
gy consumption will soar 60
percent over the next 25 years,
Exxon Mobil Corp, forecast
Tuesday in its annual energy
outlook.
Energy demand will grow to
334 million barrels of oil
. equivalent a day in 2030, up
from 205 million in 2000,
Jaime Spellings, head of
Irving, Texas-based Exxon
Mobil’s corporate planning,
said during a webcast of the
outlook’s presentation.
Oil consumption will grow
1.4 percent annually, and gas
will grow 1.8 percent per year.
Oil and gas will account for 60
percent of the world’s energy
needs, the same share they
hold today, Spellings said.
Most of the growth will
occur in developing countries,
' he said.
The Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries
will have a progressively larger
share of the world’s oil pro-
duction as non-OPEC output
growth flattens around 2010,
Spellings said.
To satisfy growing crude oil
thirst, OPEC will have to pro-
duce more than 47 million bar-
rels a day by 2030, a 40 per-
cent increase over current lev-
els, Spellings said. The plan-
et’s remaining crude-oil
resource base — approximate-
ly 2.2 trillion barrels, exclud-
ing non-conventional oil —
can support that growth,
Spellings said. The Middle
East and Russia hold most of
remaining reserves, he said.
North American natural-gas
demand will grow 0.5 percent
per year to 90 billion cubic
feet a day, with domestic pro-
duction expected to decline by
2030 to slightly above 60 bil-
lion cubic feet a day from
close to 80 billion cubic feet a
day. Liquified natural-gas
imports will account for the
difference.
