BAGHDAD, Iraq — A car bomber sped up to American soldiers distributing candy to children and detonated his explosives Wednesday, killing up to 27 other people, U.S. and Iraqi officials said. One U.S. soldier and about a dozen children were among the dead.

At least 21 others, including three U.S. soldiers, were wounded in the attack, the second major homicide bombing in Baghdad this week.

And to think that the BBC refuses to call them terrorists.

B-A-S-T-A-R-D-S!!!! !!!!!

[TheForceOfOne]

Yeah, what is with the new catch phrase "Bomber" as apposed to Terrorist. I think what they're doing is step by step they're diminishing the words used to describe them until it will sound like something harmless. This is a very dangerous propaganda tactic to use on the public.

[mlc9852]

These terrorists have got to be destroyed by whatever means necessary and the sooner the better. How do people become so brainwashed?

[ConservativeMan55]

O'Reilly had a guy on last night from the nation magazine.

The guy was spinning all over the place about this.

He was like "Well the word terrorists has been dimished because people are calling them terrorists in other places. We don't want to confuse the two terrorists"

And O'Reilly was like..even you gotta admit thats dopey.

[Allegra]

Oh, how awful. I was just out on the streets earlier today (in an inconspicuous but armored convoy) and noticing (again) how cheerful the Iraqis seem to be. Their children are a delight to watch and everyone watches out for them.

I didn't hear this bomb so I don't know where it was, but this is heartbreaking. One of our own and several local innocents losing their lives.

How I despise the terrorists.

[NO_2_CORZINE]

Im noone to defend the BBC, but after the London Attacks they've used the word terrorists. However they've used it about as much a child uses a car.

[Bogey78O]

They retroactively ordered the removal of the word terrorists from all reports.

[AppyPappy]

A "bomber" is a big plane that drops bombs. A terrorist kills children.

[Puddleglum]

What a wicked thing to do. "Insurgents" my butt. They are the sons of Satan.

[ValerieUSA]

I was sick of the word "insurgents" -- but mostly I'm sick of these desperate attacks. These terrorists need to be wiped out -- no mercy.

[TheForceOfOne]

I am sick of the twisted demented tactics of the liberal spin machines. How do these people look in the mirror without throwing a lamp or a brick into it.

[infool7]

Prayers for those suffering from this latest and most horrific attack. We are called to consider carefully the nature of anyone who would make excuses for the monsters who commit these acts.

[NavyCanDo]

What kind of sick mind must must you have to actually believe you would get a direct ticket to Paradise for doing this?
Supports my belief in that this is not just a war with terrorist, but a battle between good and evil. We must win.

[WestTexasWend]

The Beebers, Reuters and others who won't use "terrorist" are plain old garden-variety cowards.

They act like they're being pc-sensitive-objective, but they're actually just afraid they'll be targeted by these looneytunes, so they bend over backwards for them and lose their spines in the process.

[ConservativeMan55]

Or we could call them bastards.

[prairiebreeze]

Muslims killing mostly other Muslims, and children to boot. Yeah, all sorts of honor associated with that.

There is a special place in hell for these murderous pukes.

[TheForceOfOne]

If a bomber kills their family they'll know it was a terrorist.

[B Knotts]

It seems to me that they need to go back to Fallujah, give 72 hours notice, and bomb the place into the sand.
