Bombs kill 8 Americans in Diyala and Baghdad
(AP)

7 May 2007

BAGHDAD - Roadside bombs killed eight American soldiers in separate attacks in Diyala province and Baghdad, and a car bomb claimed 30 more lives in a wholesale food market in a part of the Iraqi capital where sectarian tensions are on the rise.

In all, at least 95 Iraqis were killed or found dead nationwide Sunday, police reported. They included 12 policemen in Samarra, among them the city’s police chief, who died when Sunni insurgents launched a suicide car bombing and other attacks on police headquarters.

The deadliest attack against US forces occurred in Diyala, where six US soldiers and a European journalist were killed when a massive bomb destroyed their vehicle, the US military said. Two US soldiers were wounded, the military said.

Two other American soldiers died Sunday in separate bombings in Baghdad.

The military Sunday also reported three other deaths _ two Marines in a blast Saturday in Anbar province and a soldier who died Sunday in a non-combat incident in northern Iraq.

Following the horrific blast, blood pooled on the dirt streets. Hospital officials said two pickup trucks filled with body parts were brought to the morgue.

1. The only 'industry' that the US government hasn't turned over to
foreigners is the disposal of the dead.

2. Reading posts like this makes me wonder how
anyone, with even the tiniest bit of gray matter,can seek to continue this madness? It has to end.I don't suppose the president will have time to think about it today with that white tie thing and all--hard work.

5. Are you saying war is not standing on a ship looking manly?
I fear this is what war is and think God I have never had to see many of these things. I had nightmares as a kid, as I must have seen pictures of the 'rape of Nanking' and the pictures used to pop up in my dreams for my whole life. The baby with the stick, crying at a RR station never leaves me and others pictures. I am sure these up to date things will never leave people also. I can not even place the horror if you saw it in person.
