On 3/2/2004 the Mossad set off a series of massive bombs

Over 250 Shiite Muslims were killed and 500 wounded when a series of deadly blasts Tuesday struck important shrines on the holiest day of the Shiite Muslim calendar, Ashoura. The blasts occurred in Baghdad and Karbala. Karbala is the Mosque where Mohammed’s grandson Hussein is buried. There were 50,000 Pilgrims from Iraq , Iran and other countries at the shrine when the bombs went off.

Jewish tactic of civil war

Sunnis make up 60% of Iraq and Shias are 40%. The attack was on the Shias population and Americans are promoting the idea that Al Queda was behind it. There has never been a civil war in Iraq or any animosity between Sunni and Shiate.

Fierce firefight and US conveniently kills bomber

U.S. officials say they have evidence Zarqawi was behind attacks including the August bombing of the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad, a blast at a mosque in Najaf that killed more than 80 people, and an explosion at an Italian military camp in the southern city of Nassiriya.
