What George Bush Hath Wrought: 'Mentally Retarded Women Used in Bombings'

The coordinated blasts — coming 20 minutes apart in different parts of the city — appeared to reinforce U.S. claims al-Qaida in Iraq may be increasingly desperate and running short of able-bodied men willing or available for such missions. . . .
