Iraq
Terrorists Celebrate Christmas with Mass Murder of Bayji Civilians
2007-12-25
BAYJI, Iraq – Iraqi citizens were attacked and killed by a terrorist using a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device near Bayji’s north gate Dec. 25.

The latest reporting on the number of killed in the blast is 20. Additionally, 80 more Iraqis were wounded in the attack. A Concerned Local Citizen stated the SVBIED consisted of two unidentified individuals driving a blue KIA truck.

Most of the wounded were transported to the Bayji hospital. The severely wounded were transported to the Tikrit hospital.

“The enemy is making last-ditch efforts to derail and discredit the local Iraqi Security Forces by targeting innocent citizens of Bayji,” said Lt. Col. Peter Wilhelm, the 1st Battalion, 327th Regiment commander, responsible for the Bayji area of Salah ad Din Province. “As the enemy continues to feel increasing pressure from all sides, to include a more viable Iraqi Security Force, this senseless attack today just demonstrates the enemy’s desperation as Iraq and its citizens are making significant strides for peace.”

Iraqi Security Forces and Coalition Forces are currently on the scene.

#1  The terrorists are now know there are two forces they cannot defeat. The US Military and now the Iraqi military.

They have only one hope. That is the defeat of weak politicians in Washington DC. By slaughtering innocent civilians these cockroaches are hoping the American politicians will cry uncle.
