It's all about getting re-elected and nothing more. Get out in June, civil war in August and they'll be able to wash their hands of it going into the election saying it's an Iraqi problem. <g>

Car Bombs at Turkey Synagogues Kill 20


By JAMES C. HELICKE, Associated Press Writer

ISTANBUL, Turkey - Twin car bombs exploded outside synagogues in Istanbul during Sabbath prayers Saturday, killing at least 20 people and wounding more than 257, officials said.




Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul said there were "international connections" to the near-simultaneous attacks, one of which blasted the city's largest synagogue, Neve Shalom, as hundreds were gathered to celebrate a bar mitzvah, the coming-of-age ceremony for a young man.

Police were investigating whether the al-Qaida terror network had any link to the bombings, private CNN-Turk television reported.

A huge crater was blown into the street in front of Neve Shalom, leaving the twisted wreckage of a car, as medical teams carried away bloodied and burned victims. The other blast hit the Beth Israel synagogue in the affluent district of Sisli, three miles away, collapsing its roof and littering the street with debris.

"There was huge panic, glass exploding and metal pieces all over the place," said Enver Eker, who witnessed blast at Neve Shalom, which in Hebrew means "oasis of peace."
