20 Beheaded Bodies Found in Iraq

Source: ABC News

Twenty beheaded bodies were discovered Thursday on the banks of the Tigris River southeast of Baghdad, while a parked car bomb killed another 20 people in one of the capital's busy outdoor bus stations, police said.

The beheaded remains were found in the Sunni Muslim village of Um al-Abeed, near the city of Salman Pak, which lies 14 miles southeast of Baghdad.

Meanwhile, a parked car bomb ripped through a crowded transport hub in southwest Baghdad's Baiyaa neighborhood at morning rush hour, killing at least 20 people and wounding more than 50, another officer said on the same condition.



Also Thursday, the British military said three British soldiers were killed in a roadside bomb in southern Iraq.

Also.... meanwhile....

Gotta love those segues huh? :eyes:

I almost forgot SURGE!!!

He seemed to leave out this fine little detail.

I heard the interview. And I heard the horrific news of the beheadings.

The interview was probably taped before the news of this particular discovery, don't you think?

20 people being beheaded is an atrocity. You lead with it, unless you are trying to bury it.

With all those headless bodies turning up. Are the Iraqis still just exuberant in their new freedom?

....and remember if we pull out prematurely, Iraq could slip into the depths of secretarian violence.

In any place other than Iraq, this would be unbelievable.

Wouldn't it be more horrifying if they left the heads on the street instead of dumping the headless bodies in places that are subject to questions?

I was trying to find if those beheaded included woman and children. It seems to be the only thing to wake up some of my republican co-workers. It shouldnt' but it does.
It is sickening, but so were the lynching that were done in the USA
