This the same thing?

Suicide bombers kill 20 in Iraq sect attack

Reuters

Tuesday, August 14, 2007

BAGHDAD - Suicide bombers driving fuel tankers killed 20 people and wounded 70 in what appeared to be an attack on an ancient minority sect in northern Iraq on Tuesday, police said.

Police said it appeared three bombers driving separate tankers had attacked Yazidi sect members in different neighbourhoods in Mosul, 390 km (240 miles) north of Baghdad, detonating their vehicles in quick succession.

Yazidis are members of a pre-Islamic Kurdish sect and live in northern Iraq and Syria.

Yazidis in Iraq say they have faced discrimination because the chief angel they venerate as a manifestation of God is often identified as the fallen angel Satan in biblical terminology.

Yazidis say they suffered massacres during the secular rule of Saddam Hussein.

In April, gunmen shot dead 23 Yazidi factory workers in Mosul in apparent retaliation for the stoning of a teenaged Yazidi girl several weeks earlier

Police said the girl had been stoned to death by local Yazidis after falling in love with a Muslim man and converting to Islam. Gruesome video of her killing was aired by television networks around the world.

The Iraqi Government will deal with this as soon as they return from their month-long vacation.

AQ is doing their job of supplying talking points to the Democrats in Congress about the report on the surge due in September. Expect a lot of terror attacks in the coming weeks. AQ can lose on the ground, but win in the press.

The MORE the Dems push for a pull-out, the MORE the media supports them, the less the public backs the war, the MORE the nutjobs over there smell victory and the more outrageous and aggressive they will become.

Looks like it ended up being a much smaller loss of life. From 1 hour ago:

Three suicide bombers struck separate areas in Iraq on Tuesday, killing at least 27 people, police said.
