Nich Ashton in Baghdad | 11-21-03 | dfu

I was just on the phone with Nick Ashton in Baghdad. Reports are preliminary, but he believes that three more car bombs have gone off in Baghdad that targeted police stations.

Sorry, he could only speak for a moment. Let's see if the news services have a report soon.

If Abdul will pray, to a glowing crater.

Darn. Not much details but an aircraft is down. I don't believe it is a helicopter.

If not a chopper, I would presume mechanical failure. If not, then it is time for Dubya' to go to the extreme and put this to rest ASAP!

Just on the phone again to Baghdad. Nick tells me there were three. On another breaking news thread, I just announced a DHL plane went down.

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A cargo plane landed at Baghdad International Airport Saturday with its wing on fire, witnesses said.

The plane was trailing thick smoke and part of its wing tip was missing as it overflew Baghdad's Mahmoudiya district prior to touching down, said a witness who asked not to be identified.

The U.S. military said it was aware that there had been an emergency landing but could not provide any further details.

It was not immediately clear if the flames were caused by a malfunction or if the aircraft had been hit by ground fire. In recent weeks, insurgents have shot down several U.S. helicopters using shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles and rocket propelled grenades.

KHAN BANI SAAD, Iraq (Reuters) - A bomb has been detonated outside a police station in the town of Khan Bani Saad north of Baghdad, killing and wounding an unknown number of Iraqis, a U.S. officer on the scene says.

"There are some dead and wounded," Lieutenant Aaron Horn told Reuters on Saturday. Another bomb blast on Saturday also targeted a police station in the nearby town of Baquba.

More breaking news. The work that SSAF is doing over there is paying dividends. We had protected the glazing on some of the floors of the Sheraton. Two of our windows cracked, but they were held in place and didn't cause injuries.

Two Car Bombs Explode, Killing 12 in Iraq

BAQOUBA, Iraq (AP) - Two car bombs exploded Saturday at police stations in two towns near Baghdad, killing 12 people, all but one of them policemen, officials said.

The first blast occurred in Baqouba, about 35 miles northeast of Baghdad. Minutes later, the second blew up in Khan Bani Saad, a crowded market town about 12 miles south of Baqouba on the road to Baghdad.

Lt. Hussein Hazem said six officers died in the Baqouba explosion, which left a large hole at the entrance to the building. He said at least 10 civilians were hurt.

The explosion in Khan Bani Saad, which was carried out by a suicide driver, killed a 6-year-old girl and five policemen, according to Maj. Jabar Hussein of the local civil defense force.

These people are ISLAMONAZIS.

They want to pick up where Hitler left off.

They want to exterminate the Jews, and destroy western civilization.

Amin Al Husseini seen inspecting his Hanzar Division made up exclusively of Muslims, mostly from the Crotia/Bosnia/Serbia region. They actively lead the genocide against Serbs, Serbian Jews and Gypsies.

Amin Al Husseini meets with Adolf Hitler in November 1942, weeks before the decision to implement the Final Solution which sent Europe's Jews to the gas chamber. The Third Reich provided Amin Al Husseini with a salary and appointed him Head of the Hanzar SS Division. The Hanzar Division was made of Nazi Muslims and implemented the genocide of 250,000 Serbs, Gypsies and Jews during WWII.

Amin Al Husseini shown here on a Nazi poster recruiting fellow Muslims to join Hitler in the fight against the West and the Jews. His disciples today include Yasser Arafat, Saddam Hussein and the leaders of Hamas, Al Qeida and Islamic Jihad.

Amin Al Husseini, future President of the World Islamic Congress (1961) and founding father of the Arab League (1944) inspects his Muslim Nazi troops, the Hanzar Division. Amin Al Husseini making the traditional nazi salute.

Yasser Arafat became a disciple of Amin Al Husseini since the age of 17. Here: recent picture of Palestinian soldiers under the leadership of Arafat making the traditional Nazi salute.

Thanks for adding that to the thread. I was on a site doing some research on Arafat the other day and saw the same pictures.
