Baghdad Blast Wave: 'US to blame for Iraq mayhem'

A wave of synchronized bombings has ripped through the Iraqi capital, killing at least 72 people and wounding almost 200. Ambulances became a common sight as massive plumes of smoke rose above Baghdad. Since US troops have left, almost 20 blasts have rocked the city, in the form of car bomb and other hidden explosives.

Jeremy Corbyn, Labour MP and member of the Stop the War Coalition, told RT live from London that those responsible for the recent atrocities in Baghdad are trying to say that the Iraqi government is unable to maintain control.

blame the US for everything! Assad kills his own people? blame the US for not intervening. The US intervenes? blame the US for the dead children.

This bombs were made by people who did get profit from the US in iraq and they did it because they are desperate... who believes that terrorist stories there are no al qaida in iraq and nobody bombs himself to just kill civilians it makes no sense in the oppposite it just harmas... nobody believes that Islamists who reda the Quaran everyday miss the several Verses were it's cleary forbidden to kill a innocent + to kill her/himself , it makes no sense it is a holywood product to invade countries

@ThePostal67 WW2 won by Soviet Union. USA came to game when most German troops were killed on East Front. Check wiki: 85% Germans soldiers killed on Easter Front - guess why? There were no any great battle between Germans and Americas - any close to Kursk battle (6000 tanks) or Stalingrad or battle for Moscow.

@mikecorbeil I agree with you. I said that Saddam was executed for killing civilians.No blaming Saddam. Iraq was backed by US in this war also. Yes Saddam was cruel as should be cruel powerful politician.

Glad I'm watching this on youtube and not out the window. All the spin doctors and their patients won't matter when the bombs at your/my house. Our last chance for a change of course at home is Ron Paul. If he doesn't win, or wins and nothing changes, we will slip off that thin ledge of peace and freedom, and we're the only ones left standing on it.

@mikecorbeil Meh...-_-

@ThePostal67 You're atrociously undereducated about real-world history. The US has never come to the aid of anyone! And the US has always been genocidal. You call that helping others though; sort of like Bush in January and Feb. 2003, when he said that with war, the US was going to bring democracy, peace, justice, ... for Iraqis. Quite some philosopher and historian you are.
