Bomb kills at least 30 in Iraqi town

BAGHDAD, June 26 (Reuters) - A bomb killed at least 30 people on Monday near a crowded market in Hilla, a mainly Shi'ite Muslim town south of Baghdad, police sources said.

There were few details available on the bombing, one of the bloodiest attacks since the killing of al Qaeda in Iraq leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi in a U.S. air strike on June 7.

1. If Our Presence In Iraq Can't Do Anything to Prevent
this from happening, then why are we there? This is so sad.

7. But...that isn't working out so well either

We have opened the gates of hell and yet the chimp wanders
about prattling on and on about; "freedom, democracy, plan for
victory, and fighting terror" as the rivers of blood turn the oldest
civilization in the world into a real life horror movie.

2 million Iraqis have gotten pass ports in the last 18 months ....
the educated class is getting out.

8. Progess
We are winning the war in Iraq.

The terrorists are in their last throes.

There is no civil war.

War is peace.

Freedom is slavery.

Ignorance is strength.

Colonial occupation is liberation.

11. Reported by the 'police' instead of pentagon. Sly yet deceptive.
This is how it is depicted in CNN webpage also. 'Police' reported....

12. Democrats should be all over this! Shrub's "Stay the Course"
is NOT working. Rove has been hard at work with painting the Democrat's with a message of "cut and run". Well the Dem's need to step up and label the GOP with "Lie and Die" Lie about the reason for going to war and telling our soldiers to stay over there until they Die.
:mad:
