Religion of Peace, my a**. How can any person of humane spirit demand we walk away and leave the creatures who murder pediatricians and minefield sweepers to win?

A police source told the Independent News (Voices of Iraq) that "assassins killed Dr Ahmad Shehab, director of the Central Children Hospital, in an armed attack in Al-Mansour" located west of the capital. He pointed out that the armed men "fled to an unknown destination," saying that the security forces "opened an investigation into the incident to identify the perpetrators and the party that stands behind them."
