2. Car Bomb Blasts South of Baghdad Kill 40 -US Army
By Andrew Marshall

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Some 40 people were killed by twin car bombs south of Baghdad in the latest attempt to derail the transition to an Iraqi government in three days' time, the U.S. military said Sunday.

Initially 17 people were reported killed and 40 wounded in a single car bomb blast in the town of Hilla, 100 km (60 miles) south of Baghdad Saturday, but the U.S. military later raised the death toll and said two cars had exploded. Twenty-two people were wounded, it said.

The blasts came as militants led by suspected al Qaeda ally Abu Musab al-Zarqawi vowed to behead three Turkish hostages unless Turks stop working with U.S.-led forces in Iraq.

I don't think this has anything to do with 'attempt to derail the transition'. It has to do with killing as many Americans and people working with the Bush's Coalition of Liars. The people fighting have nothing in mind about a 'transition'. The only thing they have in mind is getting Americans, foreigners and 'traitor' Iraqis out of their country. I don't not believe they look at any dates.
