The 8 December 2009 Baghdad bombings were attacks in Baghdad, Iraq which resulted in the deaths of at least 127 people and injuries to at least 448 more. The attacks have been condemned internationally as acts of terrorism.〔〔 Opposition parties within Iraqi politics have suggested that the attacks were aided by corruption within the Iraqi security forces and that the Iraqi Prime Minister, Nouri al-Maliki, was incompetent in managing the incident. The Islamic State of Iraq has claimed responsibility for the attacks.〔 ==Attack== The attack occurred on the morning of 8 December 2009, at approximately 10:30 am. Local residents reported one blast just after 10:00, which was followed about a half hour later by another four blasts in quick succession.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Car Bombs Kill 127 in Baghdad ; Al-Qaeda Blamed for Day of Death )〕 By mid-afternoon, officials had reported five blasts in the area. At least four of the attacks are believed to have been coordinated.〔 The first of the bombings targeted a police patrol in Dora; this attack also wounded several people at a nearby college. The next four bombings were believed to be targeted at government buildings,〔 and were detonated by suicide bombers. Islamic State of Iraq has claimed responsibility for these four attacks; it is unclear if the attack in Dora was connected to them.〔 Burnt out vehicles, believed to be the ones used for the bombings, were found outside the Finance, Foreign, and Justice Ministries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Car bombings in Baghdad leave 101 dead )〕 The attack is the deadliest in Iraq since the 25 October 2009 Baghdad twin truck bombings, which killed 155 people and wounded 500.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「December 2009 Baghdad bombings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
