BAGHDAD, Iraq - A suicide car bomb exploded in central Baghdad on Tuesday morning, killing at least 23 people and wounding 94, police said. The 7 a.m. attack in Tayaran Square appeared to target a police patrol and Iraqis gathering to apply for jobs as day laborers on construction sites, Lt. Bilal Ali said.

The blast was followed by gunfire but it was not immediately clear who was shooting — police or insurgents carrying out a carefully coordinate attack.

The square is located near several government ministries and a bridge that crosses the Tigris River to the heavily fortified Green Zone, where Iraq’s parliament and the U.S. and British embassies are located.

Ali said at least 23 people were killed and 94 wounded, including policemen and civilians.

6. If you were to have a 100 Ml graduated cylinder filled with water which...

...represented all of the pain and suffering on this planet with (everything AND) the Iraq war and next to it a cylinder filled to represent the amount of suffering already this planet had the war never happened I believe, with the naked eye, you could tell a real difference.

I know it's a strange thought, but a 100 Ml graduated cylinder isn't all that big and the level of horror that has been unleashed so great...
