Zark claims police bombing
2005-09-26
Iraq's Al Qaeda wing says it carried out Sunday's suicide car bombing, which killed 13 Iraqi police commandos. "A lion brother of the martyrs brigade on Sunday launched a heroic attack on a convoy of apostate commandos," a statement, posted on a website previously used by Iraqi militant groups, said. The statement could not be immediately authenticated.

Iraqi police say the car bomber targeted the police commando patrol as they travelled on a highway in the east of the capital. Police say 10 commandos were also wounded.

The bomb followed clashes between US troops and Shiite militiamen in the eastern Baghdad district of Sadr City. Police say eight militia fighters were killed and five were wounded in the fighting.

#1  This whole car-bombing thing worked out so well in the end for the Palestinians. It's no wonder that Zark wants to copy their success.
