BAGHDAD, Iraq - The death toll from Iraq's worst attack in more than two years climbed to 155 Monday as Iraqis buried the dead from the twin suicide bombings that devastated the heart of Baghdad.

Funerals were held around the city amid heightened security that snarled traffic during the morning rush hour. The bombings targeted two government buildings, calling into question the state's ability to protect itself as it prepares for January elections and the U.S. military withdrawal.

    • and could it possibly be that the CIA was behind those bombings....because we know damn well neither the GOP, the military brass, nor the people funding the grotesque market expansion this war promotes want to see the US military pull out.

      Why is it we look for motive when someone is murdered, but we don't look for motive in situations like this?

      always, follow the money
