"Insurgents strike two Iraq schools; Suicide bomber kills bystander and injures 21" by Christopher Chester, Associated Press | January 23, 2008

BAGHDAD - A suicide bomber pushing an electric heater atop a cart packed with hidden explosives attacked a high school north of Baghdad yesterday, leaving students and teachers bloodied and bewildered as insurgents appeared to be expanding their list of targets.

The bombing, one of two attacks near Iraqi schools on the same day, follows recent blasts blamed on Al Qaeda in Iraq against funerals and social gatherings.

The trend points to the possibility that Al Qaeda has shifted tactics to focus increasingly on soft targets and undermine public confidence that things are looking better in the country.

The backlash also coincides with a US-led offensive trying to uproot insurgents from strongholds around Baghdad.

In the suicide attack, the bomber posed as a shopper or merchant transporting an electric heater on a chilly winter day - an apparent attempt to deflect attention from the explosive-rigged cart.

The blast struck the front of a two-story schoolhouse in Baqubah about 8:30 a.m., half an hour after classes began. Panicked parents rushed to find out if their children were alive or dead.

A 25-year-old male bystander was killed and 21 people were wounded - 12 students, eight teachers and one policeman, according to a doctor at Baqubah General Hospital .

"I can't think of any reason to target students," said 15-year-old Mohammed Abbas, his wounded head in a bandage as his father stood near his hospital bed in Baqubah, about 35 miles northeast of Baghdad. "We did not expect that explosions would reach our school."

In the other attack, a roadside bomb exploded next to a girl's high school in Baghdad's western district of Amiriyah, wounding a 7-year-old boy who was passing by. But police said the target was an American patrol, not the school.

Insurgents appear to be looking for ways to bypass the heavy security cordons and patrols that cover any major event or site.

During last week's observances of Ashoura, the most important holiday in the Shi'ite calendar, there were no attacks on the main procession in the holy city of Karbala, where hundreds of thousands marched.

Instead, militants struck with suicide bombings and rocket fire on small gatherings of worshippers north of Baghdad, killing dozens.

In an attack at a tribal gathering near Fallujah on Sunday, the bomber was a 15-year-old boy carrying a box of candy. Women, too, are being used more in suicide bombing - four times in the past three months.

With the help of Iraqi troops and Awakening Councils - mostly Sunni tribal groups that have turned against Al Qaeda in Iraq - the US military says it has gained command of many key areas across central Iraq.

But it is far more difficult to prevent isolated suicide strikes against less-protected targets.

"There were no police or army inside my school," said Ahmed Alwan, the headmaster of the high school targeted in Baqubah. "I think that the goal of this attack was to destroy any sign of education and culture in this country."

And CUI BONO?

Not IRAQIS or MUSLIMS at all!

Did you read the links at the top of this post, readers?

I'm NOT BUYIN' this BULLSHIT PROPAGANDA anymore!!!!!!!


The school bombing was not the only attack yesterday in Diyala Province, which has defied the nationwide trend toward lower violence over the past six months.

Three miles south of Baqubah, gunmen broke into a house and killed six men in a family for cooperating with the Iraqi Army, an army official said. .

The attack took place in al-Abara village, an Al Qaeda stronghold until Awakening Council members chased out the militants a few months ago.

In other developments, the US military said a soldier killed over the weekend south of Baghdad was the first American casualty in a roadside bomb attack on the newly introduced, heavily armored MRAP - Mine-Resistant, Ambush-Protected vehicle.

Uh-oh!

You now telling me the MRAP don't work?

Uh-oh!!!!

I sat LET'S GET OUT RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

No more WASTED LIVES and WASTED MONEY on a WAR BASED on FUCKING LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The military also said that a US soldier was killed and another was injured when their vehicle rolled over in the northern city of Kirkuk. The military said the cause of the accident was not related to combat and was under investigation."

By the way,
HOW MANY WE KILLING and why doesn't the god-damn AmeriKan MSM give a shit about that?

HOW MANY
have we KILLED, anyway?
