A massive coordinated attack involving bombings of several Shi’ite mosques and marketplaces in Shi’ite neighborhoods across Baghdad have left scores of people dead and several hundred wounded, and the nation wondering if they are just seeing the beginning of the rising violence. So far no one has claimed credit for the blasts but the government was quick to blame al-Qaeda, speculating that it was revenge for the killings of leaders announced earlier this week. The deadliest attacks were in the Shi’ite stronghold of Sadr City, where worshipers were leaving mosques after Friday prayers when the attacks hit. All told some 69 people were killed across Baghdad. But violence in other parts of Iraq, including seven bombs around Ramadi that killed one women and wounded 18 other people, were also reported. Those bombings were said to have targeted Iraqi police, but it is unclear if they were related. 
The attacks were the third major spate of bombings in Baghdad this month alone, but also stand as the deadliest yet of 2010. Year over year death tolls have been on the rise over the past several months, and are only getting worse since the disputed March 7 election.

From General Badeye: "Bottom line is we won in Iraq." http://libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=7959&Disp=1#C1
We did. I know I know, you are very disappointed. Its okay...eventually the pain of this victory will subside.
Why don't you define winning for us, general?
Hussein removed and executed. Why don't you define 'hysteria' for us, kook?
That was it? Then why is fighting still going on? The last time we really won a war I don't recall the Germans and Japanese continuing the fighting years afterwards. All we did was overthrow a government. Not quite the same as "winning a war".
We're not fighting in Iraq. You should watch a news program occasionally.
April 25th 2010: AL-QAEDA IN Iraq has confirmed the deaths of two top leaders in a US airstrike last weekend. In a statement on fundamentalist websites, al-Qaeda said Abu Ayub al-Masri, its senior commander, and Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, head of the Islamic State of Iraq group of militant factions, were attacked by US and Iraqi forces at a meeting in central Iraq. “We announce that the Muslim nation has lost two leaders of jihad,” the communiqué said, adding: “The war is still ongoing, and the favourable outcome will be for the pious.” /dumbfuck
Are you sure you got that from a news program, because General Badeye just said "We're not fighting in Iraq. You should watch a news program occasionally." I guess that means he's a liar.

You don't watch the news, as this confirms. The IRAQI Goverments troops killed these two monsters. (laughing)
