Bomber kills 10 at funeral in Iraq

TIKRIT, Iraq - A suicide bomber hit a funeral in Tikrit, killing at least 10 people and wounding 18, police said Sunday.

Elsewhere in Iraq, authorities lifted a partial curfew in Mosul, the country's third-largest city. The ban was lifted after authorities repulsed a series of attacks and rounded up dozens of suspects.

Ten people were killed elsewhere in Iraq in ongoing sectarian and political violence, police said, while several U.S. Marines were injured in a suicide bomb attack.

Heavy fighting erupted in Mosul Friday between security forces and insurgents, killing a police colonel and raising concern that insurgents were regrouping there.

3. Sickening, a new low
This ideology, which uses such terror as a tool, is the most perverted ideology since the 30's and 40's. :puke:
