Two killed while planting bomb under northern Iraq bridge

Agence France-Presse
Kirkuk, March 18

Two people were killed while trying to plant a bomb under a bridge over the Zab river near the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk on Thursday, police said.

"The bodies of two people wearing traditional Arabic clothes and explosive charges were found at the scene," police officer Karim Ali Jabburi said.

"The bodies are mutilated, so it is difficult to identify them," he said.

Jabburi said the bridge was on the main road linking Kirkuk to the northern city of Mosul.

The road is used frequently by civilians, US troops and trucks transporting goods from Syria and Turkey.

Okay. How were they killed? Explosion? Doesn't really sound like it, since they reported explosive charges on the scene. Shot up by U.S./coalition forces? Attacked by Iraqi vigilantes? (I realize you're not the author here.)

That's what happens when you don't read & heed the OSHA safety regulations.

and trucks transporting goods from Syria and Turkey.

Wonderful!
I suppose this bridge was protected by American troops. By all means, we must (in the name of Allah (sbuh) and good faith?) keep the enemy line of supply open.

Pinch me. This nightmare is getting intolerable.

I think it's time to begin a useful industry there: Dog food factories. There seems to be an endless supply of raw material...

LOL. I wonder what the SOP is for homicide bombers who make boo-boos. Maybe they do get 72 virgins, except all the virgins look like Helen Thomas. ;)
