REPREHENSIBLE

But then, when you've already defiled your holiest city and your holiest religious observance, what's an ambulance or two?
Three ambulances packed with explosives, one with as much as 1,000 kilograms, were discovered by US and Iraqi forces here in the past few days, a senior US military spokesman said on Thursday.

"Terrorists have taken on a new ambitious tactic in recent days. Iraqi and coalition security forces have foiled numerous attacks involving ambulances," said Lt-Col George Krivo. "Two Iraqi ambulances were stopped at a checkpoint in Baghdad. While the first ambulance was being searched, the second one sped off," he said.

Krivo said "once the ambulance was searched, it was found to contain over 500 pounds of explosives." He said Iraqi police found in Baghdad’s southern Al-Dura neighbourhood an ambulance filled with 1,000 kilograms of explosives.

Consider the situation this puts the Iraqis in...as well as our soldiers. A speeding ambulance now is something to question.

How many Iraqi's will now die because ambulances must now be stopped and searched?

Evil.
