Bombs target Iraq communist party headquarters
2018-05-26
[Ynet] Two homemade bombs targeted the headquarters of the Iraqi Communist Party, which is part of an alliance with holy man Moqtada Tater al-Sadr
... the Iranian catspaw holy man who was 22 years old in 2003 and was nearing 40 in 2010. He spends most of his time in Iran, safely out of the line of fire, where he's learning to be an ayatollah...
that won Iraq's parliamentary election, a party official and security sources said.

The bombs were hurled into the garden of the building in Baghdad on Friday and did not cause any casualties, said Jassim Helfi, a senior member of the party.

He described the incident as a message from those opposed to the Sairoon bloc's calls for reforms in Iraq. Sairoon has promised to end corruption and foreign interference in Iraq's affairs.

#1  Bombing of the Iraqi Communist Party headquarters? I'm a bit conflicted. You have to have the rule of law in a society but then again it is the Communist headquarters. Here, I guess, it would be the DNC (oops, did I really say that?)
