Baghdad Blitz

Up to 60 people were  killed in bombings across Baghdad yesterday with three times that number injured, It’s barely a week since US troops took a back seat and handed security over to the Iraqi’s themselves. and as expected the terrorist’s have upped  the number of suicide and car bombing’s. With the Americans having pulled back from Towns and city’s there are mixed feelings coming from the population. Some say they are glad the occupiers, note they are not called liberators though they did free them of Saddam, have finally given a date  2011 when they leave Iraq completely. whilst others fear, and with good reason that the local forces are not up to it and will be over run,  it’s said the upper echelons of the security forces are riddled with militant sympathisers, the next three months will be crucial for the future of the Country, the initial spike in attacks was expected lets see how they are dealt with.
