BAGHDAD, Jan 21 (Reuters) - A suicide bomber killed
15 people and wounded 10 when he blew himself up at
a funeral ceremony in the northern Iraqi city of Baiji
on Monday, a security official said.

The attack is the latest in a spate of deadly bombings
in Iraq's northern provinces, where the U.S. military
says al Qaeda militants have regrouped after being
forced out of other areas.

The bomber walked into a tent where residents were
mourning the death of a relative of a provincial
official.

2. Have to hand it to our evangelicals........at least they haven't start suicide bombing.....yet
Yeah, fifteen more Iraqi's can enjoy the new found freedom of the chimps. Tell the families of those fifteen that the surge is working.

One in five US soldiers coming home with brain damage? Am I reading this right? This is "working"? Our leaders are so full of shit, and the spin it to the shit eating public that just wipes the excess off their lips.

Every day we extend this nightmare, it becomes a nightmare for more and more families left behind. We are losing roughly one US soldier a day now. That is "working"? This whole thing is a farce.

Where is the press??...those pathetic excuses for guarding the freedom of speech in this country. What label can adequately fit their failure?... Disgusting what has happened to this country in the last 27 years. From the beginning of reagan, the fall of America.
