Blast hits Baghdad building, seven dead (offices of Dawa& Fadhila parties)

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A rocket blasted a commercial building in Baghdad, killing at least seven people and wounding 30 others, Iraqi police officials said on Monday.

It was followed by another rocket attack that hit a nearby house, killing one person and wounding two in the Za'afaraniya area of Baghdad.

Police said two parties in the Shi'ite alliance dominant in Iraqi politics -- the Dawa Party and the Fadhila Party -- had offices in the building.

More so than the usual hell they have to live, that is. Since right about when bush said they'd decided not to have a civil war.

Right?

along with SCIRI and the Sadr Trend.

Now, these rocket attacks. Anyone want to guess who's responsible for those attacks? :eyes:

Not surprising given that it's Jaafari's party.

I have an eerie feeling that Allawi is part of this somehow?

NAWWWWWW. :eyes:

Salvadorans Who Slew American Nuns Now Say They Had Orders



SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador -- After 17 years of silence, all four of the former national guardsmen convicted of killing three American nuns and a lay worker here in 1980 have said for the first time that they acted only after receiving "orders from above."

The declarations, made from prison, are an important development in the case because El Salvador and the United States have always officially argued that the killers acted on their own. Human rights groups and relatives of the victims, however, have always maintained that the executions were ordered, approved and directed by the military authorities.

The churchwomen -- Maura Clarke, Jean Donovan, Ita Ford and Dorothy Kazel -- were abducted, raped and shot to death on the night of Dec. 2, 1980. The next day, peasants discovered their bodies alongside an isolated road and buried their remains in a common grave. The van they had been driving when stopped at a military checkpoint turned up 20 miles away, burned and gutted.

The killings came as the United States was beginning a decade-long, $7 billion aid effort to prevent left-wing guerrillas from coming to power in El Salvador, and the case quickly became the focus of a bitter policy debate about Central America.

I still find it creepy as hell that Negroponte is overseeing OUR security. It's just, creepy. :scared:

the documentary Hotel Terminus...the first half of the movie deals with Barbie's role in one of the darkest moments of humanity; extermination of an entire race of people...only to re-emerge in the second part as doing the 'same thing' in Uruguay!!

Creepy to be mild

Where's that story?
