Two suicide bombings in Northern Iraq.

Probably radical Islamists, who seem to have no religious problems with blowing up fellow Muslims in the middle of a Muslim religious celebration, although this looks more like an assassination attempt on Kurdish leaders. Even most Muslims are realizing these people are seriously insane.

American officials expected a spike in terror attacks to coincide with the religious event.

Our enemies are killing as many or more of their own people than they are of coalition forces. Although I have not found official numbers, one source says that about 600 Iraqi policemen have died so far, more than the number of Americans killed. Yet there are still people signing up for the job, which makes them prime targets. True Iraqi patriots.
