Baghdad Suicide Bombing

By: Mike Bozee

Another violent attack occurred recently in Baghdad, as a suicide bomber killed at least 28 people standing outside a police recruitment building. In addition, at least 57 others were injured by the bombing. This represents the notion that there is still much violence and confusion in Iraq, while the US military has recently stated that it plans to reduce the amount of troops in Iraq by 12,000 over the next 6 months.

It is thought that the bomber detonated a belt of explosives as he collided with the line of people while on his motorbike. This radical behavior represents the actions in Iraq that are a relative frequent occurrence. Bombings such as this one should be treating with precaution and increased security, so that order might be maintained.
