BAGHDAD — A suicide bomber sat for hours Tuesday among hundreds of army recruits before detonating nail-packed explosives strapped to his body, killing 61 people and casting new doubt on the ability of Iraqi forces as U.S. troops head home.
Bodies of bloodied young men, some still clutching job applications in their hands, were scattered on the ground outside the military headquarters in central Baghdad. Some of the estimated 1,000 men who had gathered there before dawn for a good spot in line were so desperate for work they returned hours after being treated at hospitals for injuries in the attack.

Well crap.
Horrible, but...
"killing 61 people and casting new doubt on the ability of Iraqi forces as U.S. troops head home."
We could stay there for decades and stuff like this would still happen. We're aimlessly plodding around now.
The whole situation in Iraq reminds me of OPs mother, I tried pulling out, but by the time I did she was already screwed. Perhaps I shouldn't have come in the first place. :v:
^OHO SHIT BRAH :iceburn: motherfucker
Fuck. Some people just aren't any fun D:
Iraq is turning more and more into a big shithole, or so it seems to be.
Call it civilian ignorance.
Nuke Iraq. Problem solved.
Right?
And this is why we need to get the hell out of dodge.
I'm happy at least that there weren't Americans targeted in this.
I honestly couldn't care about Iraqi on Iraqi violence.

No. Just no.
There's always some idiot who says this in a thread about Iraq/Iran/Afghanistan. Why the fuck is that?
Dear god, why.

It was pure sarcasm. I know issues in or between countries need to be solved diplomatically.

Ah, okay.
I know there's a few guys around a few bricks shy of a load who actually think it's a good idea. And they're all probably 13 as well.
Fucking NAIL bombs?
Sweet Jesus mammary sex engaging Christ!
Not a whole lot of worse kinds of death out there than that.
That bomb must be huge then. And how come there were no body checks?

If there was a body check then it wouldn't make interesting news.
It's funny because 61 is a prime number.

Why did I laugh at that statement
[QUOTE=Ignhelper;24134771]That bomb must be huge then. And how come there were no body checks?[/QUOTE]
not huge, the shrapnel did the most amount of damage.

don't even start with that bullshit
It's not the event that scares me...it's how he was all "Don't worry about me i'll be fine" and this shit can happen any time...it's fucking crazy. Even though the news over -dramatizes things, that doesn't change the fact that people actually die.
Sorry, i'm just freaking out right now
