Baghdad minibus attack kills 10

[cal04]

Gunmen have opened fire on a minibus in the Iraqi capital, killing at least 10 people, police say.

The bus was returning from a funeral in the southern city of Najaf, which is holy to Shia Muslims.

Two cars drew up alongside the vehicle as it was travelling on a highway south of the Iraqi capital and sprayed it with gunfire. There were no survivors.

The latest violence follows two days of tit-for-tat sectarian attacks that have killed dozens of people.

3. And we keep on hearing that Iraq is 'on the brink of civil war'....

What is this, 'civil skirmish'?

This is called 'encircled' in desperate military-speak.

We are totally fucked, and deservedly so.

No plan.

No leadership (save for the ship of fools)..

God help the underdog soldier in the night.

And may Allah proffer succor to the innocent Iraqis.
