At least 54 people have been killed in a bomb attack near a mosque in the town of Musayyib, about 60 km (40 miles) south of Baghdad. At least 80 are reported to have been injured in what police say was a suicide bombing.

The attack follows the killing of three British soldiers by a roadside bomb earlier on Saturday.

The troops were attacked in central Amarah in the south-east of the country early in the day.

I'm sure Muslims around the world will condemn this attack on an Islamic holy shrine.

NOT!

Sure they will. They'll blame America, of course.

Well, if they reciprocally exterminate their tribal and religious social infrastructures, it will create the preconditions to making the place normal.

Funny that as I read this article from another news source it said the bombing was near a gas station. Makes me wonder if the the mosque may have been within a 10 mile radius and therefore was near a mosque.

This must have been the one Un-Holy Mosque in all of Iraq.
</sarcasm>

These bastards are truly nuts....attempting to start a "religious" civil war....

I find myself almost wishing to see the Shiites rise up and kill every damned militant Sunni Islamist in the middle east.....

Semper Fi
