BREAKING NEWS: SUICIDE BLAST IN BAGHDAD KILLS AT LEAST 43
Tell me again how well "the surge" worked in Iraq.
It was all media hype. Our troops were used for guard duty and the Sunni Awakening ran the insurgents out of Anwar Providence.
In short: the mainstream media, mostly Fox News, lied to the American people.
BAGHDAD — A suicide bomber targeting army soldiers and members of a government-backed militia lining up to receive their paychecks killed at least 43 people and wounded 46 on Sunday, Iraqi officials said.
http://tiny.cc/c9q6m
Violence has dropped dramatically in Iraq in the past two years, but members of the security forces remain the target of repeated attacks blamed on militants trying to destabilize the country as the United States moves ahead with plans to reduce its forces.
The Sunday morning bombing outside a military base happened as members of the anti-al-Qaida Sunni group, known as Sons of Iraq or Sahwa, lined up to receive paychecks in the mostly Sunni district of Radwaniya southwest of Baghdad.
At least six of the dead were Iraqi soldiers, 34 were Sahwa members and three were accountants, according to hospital and police officials. At least 13 of the wounded were Iraqi Army soldiers, four were accountants and the rest were believed to be Sahwa members, the officials said.
A military official at the base where the attack took place said the explosion was the work of one suicide bomber wearing an explosives vest.
All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.
The area was immediately closed off, and Iraqi helicopters could be seen flying over the site.
