#1 Let's play guess the source!

Without clicking the link...but noting the 'moral equivalence quotes' I'm guessing either Reuters or the BBC...

Seriously...why the hell would there be quotes around what is...by all descriptions and definitions a suicide attack!?

#3 mjh, I don't suppose there's malice intended here, just excessive cautiousness - not 100% cerain this was a suicide attack until confirmed by a wise man.

Anyone (e.g. Murat) want to comment on the valiant Iraqi defender who so loves his fellow countrymen he'll blow them to bits as effective bomb components?
