Iraq suicide bomber kills 25, wounds 45

I know that as Americans we are not always the best of people ! There are Wacko's everywhere , Tim Mcveigh comes to mind here ! The difference between America and many other countries ,( With the exception of a Select FEW Individuals ) Is that we don't just go Blowing people up All the time !!! We can get pissed and we can get over it a moment later (Sometimes other people get their way !) I am not happy that we have Elected a president who seems to be Flushing America down the toilet ! I have not , or will not , Blow people up over it !(I Did not vote for him either ) If anyone in the Muslim World want's to ever be taken seriously , Incidents like this should be denounced , Not praised And encouraged ! Until that time I think Muslims should just shut their traps when it comes to America !


SULAIMANIYA, Iraq (Reuters) - A suicide bomber blew himself up at a Kurdish funeral in the volatile and ethnically mixed province of Diyala in northern Iraq on Monday, killing 25 people and wounding 45, police said.

The bombing in the town of Jalawla, 115 km (70 miles) northeast of Baghdad, highlighted the dangers Iraq still faces from militants, even as overall violence falls to levels not seen since mid-2003 and the United States prepares to withdraw combat troops by August 31, 2010.

"We heard a huge explosion. We looked over at our neighbor's house and there were dead people everywhere," said Suhad Ahmed, a woman who lives next door to the house where the blast occurred.

Diyala is a melting pot of Kurds, Arabs and Turkmen variously professing Sunni, Shi'ite, Christian and other faiths.

Tension between Arabs and Kurds in the province has been rising, driven by disputes over oil and territory between Iraq's Shi'ite Arab-led government in Baghdad and officials in the largely autonomous Kurdistan region.
