"Suicide bombers killed at least 17 people at government headquarters in western Iraq's Anbar province Monday, in the second attack in less than a month, security sources said.
A car bomb exploded at a checkpoint just yards from the main gate to the compound in Ramadi, the provincial capital. As people scrambled to help, a second bomber approached on foot and detonated his explosives. The attack mirrored twin blasts two weeks ago at the compound, which houses the province's government and police. At least 13 people died in that attack.
The 17 dead and 40 wounded Monday included women and children lined up to file compensation papers for relatives killed in the earlier bombing, said Mustafa Hitti, a doctor at Ramadi's general hospital.
One provincial council member, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of being singled out for attack, blamed Al Qaeda."

I see some newspapers also used the term Murder, but it's incorrect. The Christian Science Monitor used it for a policeman who was killed. ← But those are combatants, it is war. So, that cannot be Murder.
In other news the stupid moron Nouri al-Maliki insists that the occupation should withdraw by end 2011. Very strange suicidal tendencies on his part.
How deeply weird, that he would wish his mentors and sustainers to depart. Also highly insulting, because by doing so Maliki insinuates he was anti-occupation from the start, which is a total lie and the 180° opposite is true.
"On Monday, 19 people were murdered in a two-punch suicide attack in Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province. The first bomb killed family members collecting promised pensions for policemen who were killed in early December. The second attack happened as ambulances and emergency workers arrived on the scene."
Yeah, those policemen are at war with criminals. Legitimate targets, according to Dolly. As are the great-grandchildren of anyone who voted in an Iraqi election.....LOL.
The only "innocents" in Dolly's opinion, are the murderers on Iraq's death row.
No, the war is between USA and Iraq. The so-called policemen are actually soldiers in the ranks of the United States.
So targeting combatants is 100% legit. But, even the Fort Hood operation was called murder, which shows the unwillingness of some to accept the realities of war.
