BAGHDAD, Iraq - A car bomb exploded near a police station in southwest Baghdad Friday, killing one person and wounding at least 11, Interior Ministry and hospital officials said.

1. The war that has no end..........

How many innocent have to die? I hate this war, there simply are no words to express the pain and saddness I feel everyday, God help us!

DEJA VU (ALL OVER AGAIN)

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Did you try to read the writing on the wall
Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again

Day by day I hear the voices rising
Started with a whisper like it did before
Day by day we count the dead and dying
Ship the bodies home while the networks all keep score

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Could your eyes believe the writing on the wall
Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again

One by one I see the old ghosts rising
Stumblin' 'cross Big Muddy
Where the light gets dim
Day after day another Momma's crying
She's lost her precious child
To a war that has no end

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Did you stop to read the writing at The Wall
Did that voice inside you say
I've seen this all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again
It's like Deja Vu all over again

3. Update: 10 Dead....

A car bomb exploded near an Iraqi police patrol in southern Baghdad today, killing ten people and wounded four others, the US military said.
The military said a car packed with 135kg of explosives blew up at about 11am local time (0900 BST) as an Iraqi police patrol drove through the al-Dora neighbourhood. The blast killed a family of four travelling in a car nearby, four Iraqi labourers working in a palm grove, and two other bystanders, the military said.

"This is an act of terrorists," said Lt Col James Hutton, a spokesman for the 1st Cavalry Division. "These attacks kill innocent Iraqi people trying to live their lives in peace."
