Thank you so much Former President George W. Bush. Without you none of this would have been possible. What do I mean by that? Why simply that it’s pilgrim killing time again South of Baghdad:
HILLA, Iraq (AFP) — A woman suicide bomber dressed in a black abaya blew herself up in a crowd of Shiite pilgrims south of the Iraqi capital on Friday, killing 32 worshippers, mostly women and children, officials said.
The interior ministry said 32 people were killed and 65 wounded in the attack in the town of Iskandiriyah as pilgrims flocked on foot to the holy city of Karbala for a major religious ceremony.
Captain Mohammed al-Awadi of the police force for Babil province, of which Hilla is the capital, said the suicide bomber had hidden her explosives under an abaya, the traditional Muslim head-to-toe black garment for women.
She blew herself up among a crowd of women and children just after midday (0900 GMT), he said, adding that most of the casualties were women and children.
It was the third straight day of killings that have targeted Shiites heading to Karbala.
Hey, where the heck are those WMDs anyway?
What sends me into serious driven-up-the-wall mode is that the folks responsible for the Great and Glorious Patriotic War for a Lie in Iraq do not care or do not realize that they have blood on their hands.
And on ours.
Journalism hit a low point during the Bush years. Makes me wonder if they already knew their phone were being tapped. Their laughter reminds of the Sopranos where everyone laughs at his jokes because he’s the boss.
Iraq is a trillon dollar war that won’t be won. The end result will be three different states, two with oil one with a desert.
Heckuva job, Dubya. Heckuva job.
Steven D,
I was a little taken aback at the beginning of the video, thinking it was that asshole going through his childish routine & almost shut it off.
Just to see who the hypocrites were, that were laughing at the monkey jokes, I kept watching, till I saw the impact the video really imparts.
The other thing I realized was that every one at that black-tie back slapping event, were all hypocrites.
The yellow laugh of cowards, echoed in my head, though drowned out slowly by the sadness in my heart, for all the children & their mothers, fathers, brothers & sisters of all those victims of this useless war. A war that will make the the 100 year war look like a stint in Grenada.
This war will forever & ever be a stain on humanity.
GW Bush in one word, murderous.
