Three dead as trio of car bombs rock Baghdad
BAGHDAD (AFP) - Insurgents have set off three car bombs in Baghdad, killing three people and wounding dozens more, security officials said.

Two Iraqi soldiers were killed and two policemen wounded when a booby-trapped car, with a body inside, was blown up as security forces arrived to remove the body, a security official said.

"People who saw the corpse in the car called security forces to take custody of the body and when these forces arrived, the car exploded," the official told AFP.

"Insurgents had put explosives in the car along with the body," he added.

In another attack, one civilian was killed and another 22 wounded when a suicide bomber blew up a vehicle as a joint US-Iraqi convoy passed near a police station in Baghdad's restive southern district of Al-Dura.

1. From what I read in the Times this is all going to stop
A 'moot' will be built and we now will pull up the draw bridges and start pouring hot oil on these killers. Most likely with your tax dollar. Bush and the DOD has finally figured it all out.

2. No shit. They are truly back in the crusader period over then, 11th
century minds at work.

I mean what the hell? They bombed the infrastructure back to the Dark Ages, might as well go the whole way.

But what makes me uneasy is that didn't go all that well back then either.
