The death toll from the co-ordinated suicide truck bombings targeting the minority Yazidi sect in Iraq could double from 250 to 500, officials have warned.With emergency services overwhelmed, some families have been digging with their bare hands in the search for bodies.
It was one of the deadliest attacks in Iraq since the US-led invasion in 2003.
The US military has blamed al Qaeda in Iraq for the atrocity and one commander called it an "act of ethnic cleansing."

From the report I heard earlier the locals are calling everyone to help and to protect them. American military, Iraqi military and international community.
This is the future AlQaida and the AlQaida wannabees have in mind for America.
And the democrats want us to surrender and leave Iraq to the tender mercies of such people. What a plan!
“AQ Coward’s Truck Bombs Target Hundreds of Unarmed Families in Iraq”
(my headline)
At the risk of sounding naive, what kind of insane people do this?
The muslims (no caps intentional) are just simply nuts, backwards and barbaric. Worthless scum.
People don't. Insane people don't. *Human beings* don't.
Parasites do.
I've got an Iranian friend that says this religion is older than christianity and islam. This religion is an original Persian religion. He detest muslims.
But, but, but Senator Biden insists this is a civil war. Could he be wrong? /sarc
Those poor people. God Bless and keep safe the men and women there and trying to help.
And burn and let rot every one of the batturds responsible.
I know their religion is older than Christianity. They are disliked by both Muslims and Christians. They believe in God and worship “angels” (6 or 7) one of which is a peacock. This is the sect that stoned to death a 17 year old girl for dating a Muslim.
The AQ’s Tet Offensive has started.
I wonder how many “moderate” muslims hate the Yazidis enough to secretly approve of this crime?
Methinks this is a salvo in the propaganda war.
AQ knows the Sept report is not going to be good for them. So they are ramping up the violence.
See what happens when you give them a deadline?
Maybe not.
Has anyone questioned Obambam about that theory?
He may not agree...
Fifteen replies and six hundred views in seven hours and not in breaking news. There is something wrong here.
Some folks were insisting that the death toll was no more than thirty or so, or suggesting that a conspiracy was inflating the numbers. It was a little frustrating.
Sad. It appears everyone has put their head in the sand regarding the reality of the situation we have on our hands. Pretending it doesn’t exist will make things even worse. I’m afraid the Republican Party is finished for some time to come.
THe Democrats have a bottomless appetite for genocide.
WARNING: Iraqi numbers - not always credible.
Wait for US confirmation.
