Death does not take a holiday
And so the numbers of dead just keep on coming, Eid al-Adha or no.
The U.S. military also announced the deaths of three Marines and three soldiers, making December the year's deadliest month for U.S. troops in Iraq, with 109 service members killed.And so it goes, the bombings, the murders and the US forces in the middle preventing anyone from dominating and establishing whatever new order will ultimately succeed. But Our Dear Deciderer spent a whole 3 hours Friday working on his new way to stay the course. And cementing his legacy of failure in Iraq in place for eternity.
The bombing at the fish market in Kufa, a Shiite town about 100 miles south of the Iraqi capital, killed 31 people and wounded 58, said Issa Mohammed, director of the morgue in the neighboring town of Najaf. The man blamed for parking the vehicle was cornered and killed by a mob as he walked away from the explosion, police and witnesses said....
....In northwest Baghdad, two parked cars exploded one after another, killing 37 civilians and wounding 76 in a mixed neighborhood of the Iraqi capital, police said....
....On Friday, a suicide bomber killed at least nine people near a Shiite mosque in Baghdad, and 32 tortured bodies were found across the country.
