BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Bombs killed two worshippers at mosques in Iraq during Friday prayers and authorities extended a daytime curfew on the capital Baghdad after one of the bloodiest weeks this year. snip

State television announced a four-hour traffic ban in force in Baghdad every Friday would be extended until 7 p.m. A nightly nine-hour curfew from 9 p.m. also remains in effect.

2. Baghdad is our Beirut.
Instead of Christian militias vs. Muslim militias. It's Sunnis vs. Shi'ites.

3. Nice work, commander AWOL
You and your corrupt republicon cronies have really made a global apocalyptic mess out of this.

Just one more thing, in the long list of things, you have screwed up in your life.

Now try doing something honorable: resign and let America return to honor and dignity and power. We used to stand for what was good in the world until you and your corrupt oil cronies stole America from the people
