Just wading through the bull in the newspaper so you don't have to.
My print copy has a picture of two Iraqi women consoling each other.
The caption reads: "Women grieved yesterday in Baghdad after at least 15 people were killed in an attack on a bus."
Quite honestly, reader, this is ripping my heart out!
"Iraqi Premier Moves to Plan Regional Talks" by EDWARD WONG and HELENE COOPER
BAGHDAD, Dec. 5 — A series of particularly brutal attacks across Baghdad that resulted in at least 54 Iraqis killed and scores wounded.
In the deadliest assault, gunmen set off a bomb to stop a bus carrying workers for a government organization that maintains Shiite mosques, then opened fire on the passengers, killing at least 15 people and wounding nine, an Interior Ministry official said. In the Bayaa neighborhood, a triple car bombing near a gas station killed at least 14 people and wounded 25, a hospital official said.
The American military said Tuesday that a soldier had been killed and four were wounded by a guerrilla ambush in northeastern Baghdad on Monday, and that a soldier was killed and another wounded by a roadside bomb in Diyala Province on Monday."
And that is your reported carnage and grisly mayhem in Iraq.
You know what I think of attacks on an "organization that maintains Shiite mosques" and "a triple car bombing near a gas station."
If I do say so myself, the "hallmarks" of false-flag black operations!
