91 Killed In Two ISIS-Claimed Baghdad Bombings
BREITBART LONDON ^ | July 3,2016

Posted on 07/03/2016 7:18:46 AM PDT by Hojczyk

At least 91 people were killed Sunday in two bombings in the Iraqi capital, including a large-scale attack claimed by the Islamic State group that killed 86 people — among them 15 children — in a central shopping district, officials said.

The bombings demonstrated the extremists’ ability to mount significant attacks despite major battlefield losses, including the city of Fallujah, which was declared “fully liberated” from IS just over a week ago.

The deadliest attack took place in the central Karada district of Baghdad, where a suicide bomber blew up his explosives-laded pickup truck outside a crowded shopping center, killing at least 86 people and wounding up to 170 others, according to a police officer. He said the dead included 15 children, 10 women and six policemen.

baghdad 2The suicide bomber struck shortly after midnight, when families and young people were out on the streets after breaking their daylight fast for the holy month of Ramadan. Most of the victims were inside a multi-story shopping and amusement mall, where dozens burned to death or suffocated, officials said.

What will it take for the local population to realize what is happening to them and to take appropriate action? Like rabid dogs these ISIS animals need to be exterminated wherever and whenever they are found.

Those who are being slaughtered by thier own kind should be encouraged to take up arms against thier enemies, only now and in the past we have let them down by deserting them. Trump needs to get the message across and keep to his word and we will have a viable force to combat these savages

Coming to America soon?

Thanks to Obama Opening up our border and importing tens of thousands of muslims, it's not a case of 'if' we have another 9/11 but When.

Hillary will expand on Obama’s policy of open borders/amnesty and vows to import even more muslim 'refugees'.

Donald WILL enforce our immigration laws,vet/deport dangerous muslims and stop the tsunami of unvetted muslims into this country. Anyone who, out of anger at the Republican candidate chosen, stays home and refuses to vote, votes third party or ‘write in’ is casting a vote for Hillary to complete our destruction.

FACT.

We MUST make this the biggest Republican voter turn out in history. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF OUR LIFETIME!

Deserting them. That’s rich. They kicked us out.

And it is true those moderate moslems should do something.

moslems can blow each other up all they want. I am all for that.

The violence in Iraq has never stopped. Just the reporting of it.

Within hours, IS claimed responsibility for the bombing in a statement posted online, saying they had deliberately targeted Shiite Muslims.

This is to be expected because the fundamental Sunni Muslims would consider Shiites as heretics, and as hard as it would be for most people to believe, the Shiites are worse than us hated Kafirs. The Shiites are traitors to Islam and active heretics and pose a threat to fundamental Islam.
Both fundamental Sunni and Shiites agree us Kafirs should be killed .
Beyond that they are at each others throats.

By fundamental Muslims I mean following Islam as Allah and Muhammad want it done. -tom

Ramadamadingdong is coming to an end. The holy sacred month of fasting, prayer, and devotion will soon close. The closing will be commemorated by a ceremony in the White House.
Doubtful whether bammy will mention the bombings and killings done by muslims during their holy month.

I really wish someone could educate Al Jazeera on this death cult. I just happened by chance to pull up their website to read about the Medina bombing. AJ did a very strange comparison of Cartels vs ISIS.
