WASHINGTON, May 22, 2004 – A suicide car bomb exploded outside a senior Iraqi's home in Baghdad today, killing three bodyguards and one woman and heavily damaging 22 vehicles, reported Army Brig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt at a Baghdad news briefing today.

News reports said Abdul-Jabbar Youssef al-Sheikhli, Iraqi deputy minister of the interior for natural resources, was slightly injured in the morning blast. "The deputy minister's bodyguards fired at the vehicle as it approached the house, which triggered the explosion," said Kimmitt, deputy operations director for Multinational Force Iraq.

Why do they keep firing on cars full of explosives?

Could it be to make it go 'boom'.....?

The "good guys" keep on getting bombed, soon all that remain will be the bad guys picked to rule by the wrong side of this war.
