Muqtada rising up again?
“Muqtada rising up again?”
It makes you wonder if there’s a connection. It’s been a very bad week in Iraq.....just a coincidence that alSadr recently returned?
“On Tuesday a suicide bomber wearing an explosive vest blew himself up in the middle of a crowd of police recruits in Tikrit, killing at least 49 and wounding 119. On Wednesday, an ambulance loaded with 450 pounds of explosives detonated outside a police headquarters in Baquba, killing at lest five people and wounding 76. On Thursday, three car bombs exploded nearly simultaneously on the roads to Karbala, where as many as 10 million Shiites gathered to commemorate the death of Imam Hussein ibn Ali, grandson of the Prophet Muhammad and a central figure in Shiite Islam, killing at least 52 people and wounding three times as many.”
