Those damn Amish again.
Prayers out to the families affected by these cold and evil b*stards. May they find the solace and comfort they need to deal with the pain this senseless tragedy has wrought.
Are we REALLY sure we want Obammie as the Commander in Chief?
Targeting the Syrian security forces is dangerous business. I wonder who would take such a risk?
I wonder is this linked to the build-up of Syrian troops on the Lebanese border, noticed last week.
Syrian TV: Damascus car bomb kills 17
By Reuters
A car bomb exploded in the Syrian capital Damascus on Saturday, killing 17 people and wounding 14, Syrian state television reported.
The car was rigged with some 200 kg of explosives, the television said.
It was the first explosion in Syria since the car bomb assassination of Imad Mughniyah, military commander of the Islamist group Hezbollah, in February.

“The bombing is the most deadly single attack to have ever hit Syria”- Al Jazeera
Damascus huh?
Glad to hear that.
I dont care..........
Islam is peace damnit!!
Man, lots of stuff’s been happening in Syria this year. Mughniyah, Assad’s bro-in-law accused of plotting a coup, Assad’s right-hand man assassinated, troops near Lebanon, car bomb in Damascus....
So, who could it be? Mossad? Hezbollah? The fact that they targeted a security building says it was probably an enemy of Syria who did it; which would rule out Iran’s Quds Force. I don’t think Syria ever truly intended to break away from Iran (that was just PR to the West), so I don’t think this was some kind of hint not too.
I suppose it could’ve been Hezbollah retaliation for Mughniyah’s death, but they rely on Syria for arms and support; they’d be biting the hand that feeds them. But if they’re that stupid, hey, fine by me...
Or maybe it was a move by Lebanon in response to the Syrian troops on their border.
Perhaps now the Syrians have an inkling of a smidgen of fraction of an Idea about how the Israelis feel about car/suicide bombings.
Not that I approve, or am cheering. ANY terrorist bombing is just plane wrong. this is more a matter of gaining someone else’s perspective. And the perspective truly sucks.
How long before they blame Israel????
Israel is George Bush of Middle East
