Who, What, Where, And Why

A double suicide bombing killed at least 14 people and wounded 26 Monday outside the Baghdad office of a government agency that cares for Sunni mosques and shrines. Three other bombs killed five more people in the capital. In eastern Baghdad, a roadside bomb detonated near a technology university, killing four people, including a student, and wounding 11 others, a police officer said.

In Baghdad's Jadriyah neighborhood, two roadside bombs went off minutes apart, killing one civilian and wounding four other people, including three policeman, another police officer said.  The first bomb detonated near Baghdad University on the southeastern bank of the Tigris river, killing a passing driver and wounding his passenger. About three minutes later, the officer said, another bomb went off near a police patrol that had responded to the first bombing, injuring three policemen.

The government facility took planning, the vehicle was either a very official type, or the bomb was hidden. You just don't park a truck at an entrance to a large facility and expect people not to react. The restaurant bomb was terror, and the other bomb was a standard Israelis operative trap, (blow off one bomb, the rescuers arrive, and then kill them with another bomb).
