Sad

At least 100 killed in Iraq explosions

For some background on Ashura, check out Salam Pax' blog. It is the first time this festival is being held in decades in Iraq. His mother is Shia and he was going to Kerbala to the festival. Hope he's alright.

I cannot understand the motives that would drive anyone to set off a bomb or fire upon a crowded street. The victims and their families are in my prayers.
