In Iraq, Carnage, Anger and Grief
After Bombs Kill 43 in Baghdad, Broadcasters Air Citizens' Frustration

........BAGHDAD, Aug. 17 -- In the hours after a triple car bombing in the

footage of previous attacks showing limp children, wailing men and distraught
women dressed in black abayas pushing through crowds. "Oh, oh Iraq, the land of
bloodshed."...............
