Ouch!
CNN is live with the story.
That just shows us what the liberal partisan elites in "the media" know. They are worthless trash who hate this country and the average everday American citizen.
The bad news just keeps on coming in...
I wonder how the Sheeple will react to this bit of news. You never can tell with that fickle crowd.
Not on my computer. The stock market crash in India/SE Asia is the most recent item shown.
The India crash is due to Congress Party taking over, not this story...
We're doomed...the sky is falling...it's all over...quagmire.
Some of his guards were also reportedly killed.
Salim took over on May 1 for a month's tenure as the head of the US-appointed Governing Council, a body which is the subject of fierce criticism by insurgents fighting coalition troops, who accuse it of collaborating with the US-led occupation.
The death has been called a "political assassination" by a spokeswoman for the Jordanian government.
We're doomed...the sky is falling...it's all over...quagmire.
It's in the BN Sidebar and showing in "Topic" at the beginning of the thread for me. Anyway, CNN is still live with the guy who used to be BBC's man in Washington. Now he is CNN's man in London.
According to Iraqi Governing Council sources, council President Izzedine Salim was on his way into the Green Zone, which houses coalition headquarters, when he was killed.
The explosion occurred at about 9:45 a.m. about 200 meters (656 feet) west of coalition checkpoint No. 12.
Correction: He used to be BBC's Financial guy in NY.
They're celebrating on the DU! They're friggin' ghouls!
Saleem was in a convoy of five vehicles, and the car carrying the bomb was adjacent to the council chief's car when it exploded, witness Mohammed Laith said. He said Saleem's driver and assistant were among those killed. Saleem held the council presidency, which rotates monthly among a selected group of members.
The party of death and hate. What else could we expect?
well the prison story goes off the front burner..
Getting too crazy. I'm still thinking about ambrose's comment about the W haters.
Thank you for the additional information.
But hasn't the media assured us that the war against al-Qaeda has absolutely nothing to do with Iraq?
