BAGHDAD - Twenty beheaded bodies were discovered Thursday on the banks of the Tigris River southeast of Baghdad, while a parked car bomb killed another 20 people in one of the capital’s busy outdoor bus stations, police said.

The beheaded remains were found in the Sunni Muslim village of Um al-Abeed, near the city of Salman Pak, which lies 14 miles southeast of Baghdad.

Dang... is this grusome or what? It seems to be getting harder and harder to find good news when it comes to the Iraqi side stepping up.

I had not seen this posted yet...sorry if it had.

Although it's typical to immediately assume that these corpses are of Iraqi civilians, it's a possibility that these bodies are of insurgents whom the locals simply took care of on their own initiative. This has been happening here and there in Iraq for years now, although it's seldom reported, and when it is, the leftmedia deliberately leaves their identity vague so as to enable the assumption that it's the work of Islamakazis.

Salman Pak????? Thought that was where they trained ‘airline stewards’ in those vacant ‘airliner bodies’ we saw back then......

[eureka!]

I agree. It would be very interesting to note just how many of the bodies found in the past and dutifully reported on by the press as the “continuing sectarian violence” are bad guys getting taken care of by the locals. A fair number I would suspect...
