100 Killed in Iraqi Suicide Blast
(Washington Post) Andy Mosher and Saad Sarhan - On Saturday in Musayyib, a town 35 miles south of Baghdad, a suicide attacker detonated his explosive belt in a crowded marketplace just as a tanker containing cooking gas was passing, triggering an inferno that destroyed dozens of buildings, including a nearby Shiite mosque where worshipers were emerging from evening prayers. One hundred people were killed and more than 150 were wounded.
