Iraq's suffering continues.....
The death toll from yesterday's market bombs in Baghdad, carried by mentally disabled women, has risen to nearly 100, according to officials. The blasts on Friday left 99 people dead and up to 200 wounded and is the Iraqi capital's deadliest attack since violence fell in the wake of a US troop surge in the second half of 2007.
The attacks targeted pet markets in the city, which had been crowded with Iraqis out shopping or meeting friends shortly before the call to Friday prayers.
