“Female suicide bombers kill 73 in Iraq”
By Sharon Behn and Sara A. Carter
February 2, 2008

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Iraqi officials said at least 73 persons were killed in the bombings, which would make them the deadliest to hit Baghdad in months. U.S. officials reported 27 dead and 53 wounded.

It is common that death toll numbers vary widely between U.S. and Iraqi statements.

Brig. Gen. Qasim al-Moussawi told the Associated Press that the remotely detonated bombs had been strapped to the bodies of two women, both of whom had Down syndrome. It was not clear how Gen. al-Moussawi made the diagnosis without an autopsy.”
