BAGHDAD - Twin car bombs struck near the compound of one of Iraq's most powerful Shiite politicians Monday, killing at least six civilians and wounding 20, police and hospital officials said.
A dense cloud of black smoke rose over the offices of Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim, the leader of the country's largest Shiite party, the Supreme Islamic Iraqi Council, or SIIC. More than dozen cars were destroyed in a blackened area, and a brick building was blown apart.
Police said the bombs were planted in cars lined up at a gas station nearby.
That's right -- Iraq, a place that, thanks to Bush, despite the world's second largest oil reserves, you still wait in line for gas.
So who did it?
I know the U.S. will say Al Qaeda.
