Apparently some fledgling domestic (there is reason to suspect that these geniuses are home-grown) terrorists decided to forgo the normal route of expressing discontent over the Iraqi War (little things they could do like...vote) and decided to take their fight to the streets by bombing a military recruitment office.
I assume that they are fledgling terrorists because there are a couple of things that they clearly overlooked which gives me the impression that they are just starting out:
1.) The military has no control over this war. This government is set up to let civilians run wars.
2.) The best way to fuel the War on Terror machine is by committing acts of terrorism, which I am guessing goes against the objective of this bombing. These guys seem to forget that this War on Terror was the reason given to justify going into Iraq in the first place.
I had to edit this post three times because it was laced with so much profanity. Aside from just being disgusted over the idea of a bombing, this particular one was just dumb as hell. I get that they wanted to be symbolic, but somehow I think that if someone in that area really wanted to join the military, this bombing would be more likely to increase their sense of patriotic duty instead of destroying it.
