Chaos Theory

This is just from Tuesday alone:

In other violence Tuesday, a suicide bomber wearing an explosive vest killed at least 20 people and wounded 68 others in the Amin neighborhood.

Two car bombs killed four and six people, respectively, an official with Iraqi emergency police said.

A bomb in a parked car went off in eastern Baghdad's Maysalon Square, the city's emergency police said.

The blast targeted the convoy of a high-ranking Defense Ministry official, Daham Radhi al-Assel, an adviser to Defense Minister Saadoun al-Dulaimi. Three of the adviser's guards were wounded, but he escaped unharmed.

A roadside bomb in northern Baghdad also hit an Iraqi police patrol, wounding four officers.

In addition, bombers set charges on the roof of a Sunni mosque in the capital, badly damaging the shrine. No one was hurt in the attack.

Two mortar rounds struck a Baghdad TV station owned by a Sunni political party, injuring four people, including two journalists, police said. The rounds struck Baghdad Satellite TV, owned by the Iraqi Islamic Party.

Meanwhile, in the north-central city of Tikrit, a Sunni mosque built over the grave of Saddam Hussein's father was bombed Tuesday, an official with the Salaheddin Joint Coordination said.
