Reuters reports:

<<<

Forty-six people were killed in today’s suicide attack on a Shi’ite funeral in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, Iraqi health officials said. Witnesses said the casualties were from various sections of Iraqi society ...
>>>

Why would anyone do such a thing? Reuters explains:

<<<

The insurgents’ ranks have been boosted by frustration at the US occupation, shootings of Iraqi civilians by troops and foreign contractors, and by abuse of prisoners in US-manned jails.
>>>

They’re killing Iraqis because they’re upset about mistreatment of ... Iraqis. Makes sense to Reuters.
