There is a Job to finish in Bagdad
Last week a 14 year old suicide bombers was apprehended by two Iraqi security guards as he made his way to the Rasoul mosque, which was filed with Shite worshipers celebrating the end of Ramadan. The boy detonated himself as he struggled with guards, who were killed instantly. as were several passersby.
The attack was one of two that day against Shite targets, which the New York Times duly reported under the headline "Bagdad Suicide Bombers Kill 2 Dozen in Attacks on Mosques," The Rimes added that " many in the crowd immediatley said they suspected American Involvement," although it added that "they displayed no obvious signs of hostility to a group of American soldiers who remained at the scene for some time."
Taken at face value, the story suggests just how "fragile and reversible", things are in Iraq, to use what has now become stock line. Not reported by the Times, however- or anywhere else in the Western Media, as far as I can tell - was the identiy of the guards who prevented what could have been a much deadlier attack. One of them, Hamid Mansour Hassoun, was a Sunni. The other, Mohammad Nouri al-Rubaie, was a Shite. Their joint sacrafice is a testament to everything much of the world thought Iraq could never be.
The media also "suggested" Maliki wanted the government out of Iraq by 2010, but he never said that. More liberal hype from the NYT, Wash Post and other domestic toilet paper newspapers. Those fear and hate mongering newspapers are anti-american.
