Gas tanker blast kills nine in Iraq - Yahoo! News

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A hidden bomb ripped through a tanker carrying chlorine gas Tuesday, killing nine people and filling hospital beds with more than 150 wheezing and frightened villagers after noxious plumes covered homes and schools north of Baghdad.

The attack was part of a string of blasts — including a suicide bomber who killed seven mourners at a funeral — that further rattled officials marking the first week of a major security crackdown seeking to calm the blood-soaked city. U.S. forces, meanwhile, called in airstrikes during intense clashes against insurgents in strongholds northwest of Baghdad.

This is getting ridiculous now. How can you claim to do things in the name of a religion and then with the same attitude desecrate one the most important parts of any religion(a funeral)? It's sacriligious and blasphemous and there are almost no words to describe such a crime. Oh yeah and shame about the truck.

Religion is but a rally cry these morons use. Indifferent from that of Jesus camp here in the US. Has nothing to do with religion, it has everything to do with power and control. The only way these idiots rise to power is through disarray and fear - terror.

The way they act is a direct insult to their religion. To disrupt an islamic funeral procession is a sin.

To me all religions are whack if you believe more in the deity of the religion than the teachings of them. In other words, superstition over philosophy.
But what these *******s want is not religious war, they want a war in the name of religion and only snippits that support them not the entirety. The blind mindless idiots that follow are just that, idiots. In the end, you kill me, I kill you it's all chaos, but the heads stay behind and just watch to gain power - that's all they want. Just like every other blood sucking politician ever in the history of mankind.
Times are different, weapons are different, targets are different, but goals are the same.
