[ARABNEWS] A suicide kaboom near a security checkpoint in the Iraqi capital killed at least five people on Saturday, a police officer said. The officer, speaking on condition of anonymity ... for fear of being murdered... , had earlier gave an "initial toll of three people killed and 11 maimed" in the attack. The Baghdad military command said the jacket wallah targeted a checkpoint near Aden Square in northern Baghdad. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but most such attacks in Iraq are the work of the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... jihadist group. | |
