BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Suicide bombs at two marketplaces in Baghdad, one of them claimed by Islamic State, killed at least 20 people on Sunday, police and medics said, the latest in a spate of militant attacks in the Iraqi capital that have left dozens dead.

In the first blast, the attacker drove an explosives-rigged car into a large vegetable market in the mainly Shi'ite district of Jamila, and detonated it after security forces opened fire to try to stop the vehicle, police sources said.

A suicide bomber wearing an explosive vest blew himself up a few hours later at a market in the mostly Shi'ite Baladiyat district.

The first blast killed 13, and the second blast killed seven people. More than 50 were wounded.

7. w did not know that Sunni and Shia were different less then 6 weeks before he started his war

Now we are not responsible for all sectarian problems around the world
but we sure made things a lot worse in Iraq and the middle east w/Dick
Cheney's war for oil.

8. True about bush's ignorance

That doesn't change the facts that he and dick can't be blamed for the fact that the war merely took a Sunni dictatorship and got rid of their ability to keep down and murder their Shia majority population. They wanted to kill each other long before we got there.
