Jihadis offer equal rights for women...NOW says it's about damn time!

Woman Bomber kills 41 at Baghdad college.

Her evil handiwork:

The blast flung blood-soaked notebooks and backpacks among the lifeless bodies and wounded. Cement walls were pockmarked by the hail of ball bearings. Parents rushed to the site and some collapsed in tears after learning their children were killed or injured. Students used rags and towels to try to mop up the blood.

Of course, Mooktada al-Sadr had to step up to the mike and blame the US. He doesn't appear in public to say this - no, he's still in hiding somewhere (hopefully getting some much needed dentistry work done). The leader speaks. ( and I'm wondering if it's with a lisp.)
"Here we are, watching car bombs continue to explode to harvest thousands of innocent lives from our beloved people in the middle of a security plan controlled by an occupier," said a statement read to hundreds of cheering supporters by an al-Sadr aide in Baghdad..."

"To my Shiite and Sunni brothers, I say, `Let us scorn sectarianism and hoist the banner of unity,'" said the statement from al-Sadr, whose militia is blamed for frequent execution-style slayings of Sunni rivals.Since the security crackdown began, the number of bodies thought to be victims of Shiite death squads has gone down dramatically in Baghdad, but there has been no respite from violence blamed on Sunni insurgents."
To all my Shiite and Sunni brothers, I say, "Let us scorn Islamic fundamentalism and hoist the banner of Iraqi democracy, liberty and freedom."

Oh, and about that NOW business? Just kidding.
