At Least 26 Dead in at Least Half Dozen Bombings Across Baghdad
Following violence over the weekend
Seven bomb explosions killed 26 people and wounded 67 in the Iraqi capital on Monday, police and medics said, as security forces battled Sunni Muslim militants around the western cities of Falluja and Ramadi.
The bloodiest attack occurred in the mainly Shi'ite Muslim Abu Dsheer district in southern Baghdad, where a car bomb near a crowded market killed seven people and wounded 18.

Goat fuckers will be goat fuckers. MAYBE, just MAYBE, if we put American military uniforms on 3/4 of the population of the USA, and gave them all guns, and sent them over there, MAYBE we could change it...
Seems like the last time the middle east was calm was when all the Arabs were under the thumb of the Turks.

And the next time that there will be relative peace on the God-forsaken Planet Earth will be when the Hordes from the Andromeda Galaxy come to smack DOWN the AmeriKKKans under the Evil Galactic Emperor Obamanator?
