SUICIDE CAR BOMBER KILLS MORE THAN 20 IN IRAQ

SUICIDE CAR BOMBING IN IRAQ
KILLS UP TO 25 AND WOUNDS 80
(Reuters) - A car bomber killed more than 20 people and wounded 80 on Thursday at a police building in the mainly Shi’ite city of Hilla, an official said, as Iraq braced for revenge attacks after U.S. commandos killed Osama bin Laden.  Iraq’s army and police have been on high alert since American forces shot dead the al Qaeda leader and security officials said they had received intelligence that the Sunni Islamist group’s Iraqi wing would carry out revenge attacks.  The suicide bomber rammed his car into the entrance of a police headquarters in the center of Hilla, 100 km (60 miles) south of Baghdad, during a shift change at around 6:40 am (11:40 p.m. EDT), when many police officers were outside the building.

A hospital source in Hilla said the blast killed 25 and wounded 83.  Iraqi officials often give conflicting tolls.  Iraq has been a major battlefield for al Qaeda since the 2003 invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein.  Dozens of bombings and other attacks are still mounted each month, although U.S. and Iraqi officials say al Qaeda in Iraq has been severely degraded in recent years.  Attacks on the army and police are rising ahead of a full withdrawal of U.S. troops by December 31, more than eight years after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.  Blast walls in front of the police headquarters in Hilla collapsed and the building was badly damaged, many shops, houses and buildings nearby also were damaged, a Reuters reporter at the scene said.



A suicide car bomb attack on the Iraqi police in south of Baghdad on Thursday killed 25 and wounded another 75.  The attack came as the Iraqi security forces increased security alert in Baghdad and other Iraqi cities as they expected deadly attacks to be carried out by al-Qaida militants in retaliation for the killing of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan.  The retaliatory attacks by the death of al-Qaida leader have already begun.  Western governments then return to take revenge and action-reaction cycle continues, and it will not stop until we see the other as a loving brother. 


WHAT DO THE VEDIC TEACHINGS TELL US?  
When we are free from the clutches of separate interest, then all suspicion and doubt will be cleared.  We shall feel this through direct soul experience, the experience of the inner senses that we possess.  Then there will be no need for all our attempts and efforts; they’ll stop.  No special endeavor must be undertaken for our purpose because we have no separate existence.  We are particles in the Infinite and that which is feeding the Infinite will feed us also.  We shall find the general interest everywhere. We are not separate, so there is no necessity of acting for our special interest.  We shall see the divine arrangement for everyone, including every grain of sand.  We are one in the whole and the main current is doing everything, so no karma, no action is necessary on our own behalf.
