Mentally Disabled Women Used as Bombers

Two bombs exploded in a busy market place in Bahdad today. The blasts killed at least 98 people and wounded more than 200 on the holiest day of the week for Muslims.

In both bombings, the attackers were mentally disabled women whose explosive belts were remotely detonated.

Witnesses say the bomber at central Baghdad's al-Ghazl market as the "crazy woman" and that the bomber at a second market had an unspecified birth disability.
