Explosion hits Iraq’s parliament
Baghdad’s Green Zone is supposed to be the most secure area in Iraq

A suicide bomber has struck Iraq’s parliament building in the heavily fortified Green Zone of Baghdad, Iraqi security said, killing at least two people and wounding at least 13 others.

Thursday’s blast took place in a cafeteria while several ministers were eating lunch, said Mohammed Abu Bakr, who heads the media department at the parliament.

Muhammad Awadh, a member of parliament from the mainly Sunni National Dialogue Front, was killed in the blast.

Taha al-Lihaibi, Salman al-Jumaili, Hahim al-Ta’i and two other MPs were injured from the Iraqi Accord Front, another member of parliament said.

Iraqi media have reported that another MP - possibly a Kurd - was also killed in the attack although this has not been officially confirmed.

“We were having a meeting when suddenly we heard a huge blast inside the restaurant. I saw a lot MPs wounded and bleeding,” Fouad al-Massoum, leader of the Kurdish parliamentary bloc, said.

Al Jazeera has learnt that three female MPs from Muqtada al-Sadr’s parliamentary list were wounded in the explosion, along with three members of the United Iraq Alliance, the main Shia bloc in the parliament.

The US military said that a total of up to eight people were killed in the attack. …

Obviously Americans are no match for the suicide bombers. Is it now time for the Americans to put their tail between their legs and run… run for and with their lives?

Pakistani soldiers are also killed by Suicide bombers.
