| [Tolo News] A total of 13 people were killed and around 80 others were maimed in a series of car boom blasts in the Iraqi capital on Saturday, Iraqi security officials say Five people were killed and 18 others hurt after Orcs and similar vermin detonated a car crammed with explosives in front of a house used by Iranians as rest stop. There are reports claiming explosives were also planted in a house adjacent to the rest stop. The two houses were totally destroyed. A car boom struck a bus carrying Iranians to Shula, a district in northern Storied Baghdad, sources said. The bombing left two people killed and 28 others maimed. A third car boom targeted a market in Storied Baghdad's southwestern Bayaa district, killing six people and wounding 41 others, sources said. Since the collapse of Saddam Hussein's government by a US-led invasion in 2003, hundreds of thousands of Iranian pilgrims have visited Shiite holy sites in Iraq. Most often Iranian pilgrims are targeted by al-Qaeda linked Orcs and similar vermin and they oftentimes use religious ceremonies as the best time to carry out their attacks in Iraq. |

| #1 Iranian Shiites have been funding bombs in Israel for decades. Now they experience it themselves when they come to Iraq. Not so pleasant, is it? |
