FREE REPUBLIC EXCLUSIVE: Two Bombs in Residential Area of Baghdad
personnel in Baghdad | 10-30-30 | dfu

Posted on 10/30/2003 9:00:01 AM PST by doug from upland

From our personnel in Baghdad comes word of two car bombs. One was fairly close to our security compound. It is in a residential area and one is confirmed dead. We have secured the glazing in our compound, so none of our personnel was injured.

Yes, God bless our troops, but these are civilian personnel from our company. They have invited me to go to Baghdad. No thanks.

I guess until the left and their minions in the press admit what they're doing and stop it, we can expect more to die.
It's sad the members of our own country actually encourage the enemy and want even more bloodshed for their own self agrandizement.

Their lust for self will someday come back to haunt them. So it is. Amen.

Two bombs detonated about an hour apart. One went off while SSAF's president was on MSN messenger chatting with them in Baghdad.

Our company is SSAF. We protect the glazing in buildings from terrorist bomb blasts around the world. Sorry if this looks like a commercial, but here is what we do --- SSAF. Yes, we are working on a cool flash website that we hope to have up soon.

We believe one Iraqi is dead. Our compound has been secured with our window film. Unless a bomb is very close, our people will survive it. We are able to sustain a 500-lb car bomb from 111 feet and hold the glass in the frame. Shards of glass are tremendous killers in explosions. In 1992, the Bishopsgate bomb was detonated in London. It damaged 76 buildings and put 500 tons on glass on the London streets.

The company began over three decades ago in London because of the IRA bombers. We protect the majority of America's military bases in the European theatre, the major buildings in London, and commercial and government buildings around the world. I have brought the company several clients in NYC after 9-11, when I began working with them.
