It still wasn't a fanatical Christianist, [1] Andrew Sullivan hysteria notwithstanding. It was -- well, you guessed it. The Islamic jihadist attack tally keeps growing, [2] while those Christians who mount "just as many" such attacks have some catching up to do.

"Bomber strikes at Iraqi funeral," from the [3] BBC (thanks to Sr. Soph):

A suicide bomber has attacked mourners at a funeral ceremony in northern Iraq, killing at least 10 of them and wounding a similar number, police say.

The bomber walked into a tent where residents were mourning the relative of a local dignitary near the city of Baiji, a security official said.

Northern Iraq has been the scene of a number of recent bomb attacks.

The US military says al-Qaeda has regrouped there after being forced out of Baghdad and other regions.
