Iraqi President condemns today's suicide attack on Mosque
2006-06-17
(KUNA) -- Iraqi President Jalal Al-Talabani condemned Friday the suicide attack that targeted a mosque here earlier today. A statement released by Talabani said "these despicable crimes committed and during the Friday prayers are another proof that the Sadamists and the expiatory who disguise behind religion are driven by evil intents that are anti religion, morals and norms." He said the declared and open war launched by the terrorists against te Iraqi people are enticing hatred and triggering intrigues and wars." Talabani urged all parties, religious and prominent figures to condemn the perpetrators of these crimes and enhance the Iraqi national texture.

The attack on Buratha Mosque in Baghdad by a suicide bomber earlier in the day left 11 people dead and 25 others wounded. The suicide bomber blew himself up in the middle of the crowd in Buratha Mosque. New security measures are currently in effect in Baghdad and the measures include curfew on automotives in the day time on Fridays.
