Oh Jeez (Red Cross Center bombing)
-- U.S. Army: At least three car bombs rock Baghdad; 10 Iraqis killed in first blast outside Red Cross headquarters.--

The chickens are gonna come home to roost eventually. May God help us all.

2. They did this for a reason
It's meant to frighten away other nations from getting involved, to isolate the United States, make it our war and our war alone. I fear another Beirut, a la October, 1983. Ronald Reagan at least had the good sense to pull us out of that pointless mission, but we are so deep in this mess and * is so stubborn I don't think a huge attack like that will bring this to an end.

3. October 26th FIRST day of Ramadan
As someone (US military I think) was quoted a few weeks ago ~"If things don't settle down before the 26th there could very well be a whole lot of trouble" (loose quote)
