18 children among dozens dead in Iraq car bombings

Updated: 11:58 a.m. EDT (15:58 GMT) April 21, 2004

At least 68 Iraqis were killed and scores more hurt today in wave of rush-hour car bombings near Iraqi police facilities in Basra. Eighteen children aboard two school buses were among those killed in five attacks, Iraqi police said.

About 100 people were wounded in the attacks, which occurred after 7 a.m. (11 p.m. Tuesday ET) during the height of rush hour, a senior military source said.

Most of the dead were civilians, killed in three bombings: one near each of three Basra police stations and two at the nearby Regional Police Academy at Az Zubayr, police said.

Ten boys and girls being driven to kindergarten in a minivan and eight girls in another minivan headed to a high school were killed in one of the blasts, according to police official Col. Ali Abdullah.

The dead included at least 16 Iraqi police officers, police said.

Thats just sad... too many sickos in this world, I wonder what made them that way... personal anger and past experiences or just carried away and joined what their friends/family are into?

CNN) -- The Saudi ambassador to the United States says his nation is now in "total war" against terrorists following a car bombing that ripped through the Saudi capital Riyadh earlier Wednesday, killing four people and wounding 148 others.

It marked the third terror attack in the kingdom in less than a year.

"This shows that this group is evil, and they consider everybody their enemy," Prince Bandar bin Sultan said after meeting with U.S. National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice at the White House. "We are going to fight them hard."

He added: "It's a total war with them now. And there will be no compromises, and we're not going to give up on them."
