TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — State television reports a bomb explosion in southern Iran has killed scores of people.

“During the speech of a cleric in the Shohada mosque in Shiraz city, a bomb blast killed several people,”

His last words were, “Somebody set us up the bomb”.

Is it Bush’s fault yet????

“A bomb blast in a mosque......”

That sure has a nice ring to it.

Hopefully it will become a popular hobby.

Hmmm...a bomb blast at a mosque. A mullah behind it, perhaps, but why would they blow up their own guys....if they’re at a mosque listening to a cleric’s speech they’ve gotta be pretty devout, right? Why would they be targets of a mullah?

Although I found it ironic that the name of the mosque was Shohada, which looks like shahada, which is the creed the suicide bombers say before they blow themselves up....

Where is Mookie now? Maybe he was a guest speaker.

Could this be the beginning of giving Iran a taste of its own medicine? I personally wouldn’t cry if America funded Iranian dissidents who attack them in the same way they attack us in Iraq.

Just the typical weapons cache of your local mosque igniting by mistake, is my guess!

Tsk tsk boys ... dint ya mother never teach ya ... don’t use mosques as a bomb building site?

When are these terrorist going to learn? Leave the bombs at the door.

It is said that the main difference between fires in a Mosque and in a Christian Church are the secondary explosions in the Mosque.

Probably a gov't operation to eliminate a dissenting cleric. That's just my uneducated guess though.

Here's someone who would make a nice stain on a Mosque ceiling:
