Another day another holy Shiite bombing.
Iraq is such a nice place to live now that the U.S. Military are gone, almost daily bombings make it one of the most unsafe places in the world to live right now.
The funny thing is, remember how all reports said the violence would stop once we leave, because we were the Problem? Yeah right, Islam is the problem.
Islam the religion of ethnic and religious genocide against its own people!

Insurgents mounted another vicious attack against Iraq’s Shiites on Saturday, as a roadside bomb was detonated near a group of pilgrims who were marching to a mosque in the southern part of the country to mark one of their holiest holidays.
Around 8:30 a.m., the explosion ripped through a tent where pilgrims had stopped to be fed in the southern city of Basra, killing 30 people, including several police officers at a nearby checkpoint, and wounding dozens, according to local officials.
The pilgrims were marching to a mosque in the city of al-Zubair, just west of Basra, for the last day of Arbaeen, the solemn holiday at the end of the 40-day mourning period for the death of Imam Hussein ibn Ali, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad. Most Shiites typically make pilgrimages to the city of Karbala, where Imam Hussein ibn Ali is buried. But those who do not have the stamina or time to march to Karbala make a shorter trip to the Khatwa mosque, a Shiite holy site in al-Zubair.
During the past 10 days, insurgents have unleashed a string of attacks on Shiites as they have made pilgrimages leading up to Arbaeen in an apparent attempt to stir sectarian violence amid a month long political crisis that has roiled tensions between the country’s Shiite and Sunni politicians.

Bombs targeting Shiites kill at least 72 in Iraq
Iraq is working on its new future...
One of death and destruction and of course attempting Genocide.
Washington post
A suicide bomber blew himself up next to a large group of Shiite Muslims on a pilgrimage Thursday, one in a series of apparently coordinated sectarian attacks that killed at least 72 people in southern Iraq and in Baghdad.
Security officials said the bombings in two Shiite districts of Baghdad and near Nasiriyah, about 200 miles southeast of the capital, also injured at least 147 people. It was the highest one-day death toll since U.S. troops withdrew from Iraq last month and appeared to be deadliest single day of violence in the country in more than a year.
The bombings coincided with a political stand-off between Shiite and Sunni leaders that continued into its third week. A majority of the Sunni-supported political bloc Iraqiya boycotted parliamentary proceedings Thursday. And while Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, a Shiite, gave another conciliatory speech stressing harmony, his critics said that behind the scenes Maliki is trying to dissolve a political framework established under U.S. guidance that was designed to share power among Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds.

Foxnews
Two explosions in a Shiite neighborhood of eastern Baghdad killed 17 people and wounded around 50 others Thursday night, Iraqi officials said.
The blasts in the Sadr City neighborhood, coming a day after attacks across the capital killed 25 people, served as a reminder of the lengths to which Sunni militants are trying to go in order to re-ignite sectarian tensions as American forces prepare to go home.
First a bomb went off near a house in a narrow alley in Sadr City, said two police officials. Then as people were gathered at the site of the blast, another bomb went off minutes later. All of the 17 dead were killed in the second, more powerful explosion.

Pakistan, Muslims Killing Muslims.
So to show how tolerant and peaceful Islam can be, a group of Hazara Muslims (Sunnis) attacked and killed some Shiite Muslims.
Don't you just like Islam a whole bunch more now, I mean look how tolerant and Peaceful Islam is, as long as you are the right kind of Muslim.
New York Times
Unidentified gunmen opened fire on a bus in southwest Pakistan on Tuesday, killing at least 13 Shiite Muslims and wounding another seven, officials said.
The attack took place on the outskirts of Quetta, the capital of southwestern Baluchistan Province, and followed what is becoming a grim pattern of sectarian attacks in the region. Sunnis belonging to the extremist sectarian group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi in the region have repeatedly attacked minority Shiites, who are mostly members of the Hazara ethnic group.
On Tuesday morning, attackers riding in a van intercepted the bus carrying mostly Shiite commuters traveling to a market. The gunmen forced non-Hazara passengers to get off the bus and then opened fire on the Hazara passengers inside the bus, according to Abdul Khaliq Hazara, chairman of the Hazara Democratic Party, which represents the community.
