Car bomb kills 35, wounds 80 in Baghdad
2007-05-07
BAGHDAD - A car bomb killed at least 35 people and wounded 80 on Sunday next to a crowded market in a Shia district of Baghdad which has been a repeated target of attacks blamed on Sunni Muslim Al Qaeda. Bystanders used blankets to carry the dead and wounded onto pick-up trucks. The bomb tore off the fronts of shops and destroyed cars. The explosion was next to a crowded market in the Bayaa district. Markets are a favourite target of carbombers.

“What did these innocent people do to get killed in a car bomb? Where is the government? ... Where is security? Let the government come and see this situation,” said one man, angrily gesticulating at the scene.

#1  Where is the government? ... Where is security?

Where are the local citizens tipping off the good guys to where the bad guys are hanging out? This guy's already a leftist - it's aways somebody else's fault!

Well, at least as he is portrayed here...
