A missile targets a religious site east of the Iraqi capital


On Thursday, a missile targeted the Husseiniya and Mosque of the "Amir Ali bin Abi Talib," east of Baghdad.
The gentleman for whom the mosque is named is the fourth of the so-called rightly guided caliphs and the first imam of the Shiites. It seems reasonable to assume it was attacked by ISIS as the beginning of their annual planned Arbaeen massacre.
A security source told Shafaq News Agency that the religious site in Nahrawan district, east of Baghdad, was attacked at dawn today by an RBG7, resulting in material damage without any casualties.

#2 Bah. I'm so old I remember when we did Arba'een on Arba'een... and then they started celebrating a day early to avoid the rush and crush... and now it's "Happy Arba'eeneeneeneeneeneeneen..." Crazy goddamn kids. And that's why I just leave the Ramadan lights up all year long. Now get off my sand!
