The world has way more screwed up crap then just that.

We already in 2 wars without very little notice. The first war is the word "terrorism" being promoted which we wont end similar to how we label stopping "drug wars".

The 2nd war is referencing about the issue with russia and nato - like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkW4eW7TMvM

A string of car bomb attacks across Baghdad has killed at least 90 people, making it the Iraqi capital’s deadliest day this year.

Islamic State claimed responsibility for the largest blast, at a marketplace in the Shia neighbourhood of Sadr City, which killed at least 63 people.

Two other blasts targeted the Shia neighbourhoods of Kadhimiya, in the north of the city, the site of one of the main Shia Islamic shrines, and Hurriya.

Despite the resurgence of Isis in areas outside the capital, the frequency of attacks in Baghdad has slowed over the past year. But Isis continues to demonstrate that it can still launch coordinated campaigns in sensitive areas of the city despite a massive security presence.

Iraqi officials have yet to come up with a way to stop car bombs from being driven around the city and detonated in areas that have frequently been targeted. Sadr City, a sprawling former slum area which is home to more than 1 million Shia residents, is one such area.

In recent years Sadr City has been targeted at least 110 times, according to Iraqi officials. In almost all cases the bombs were driven into the neighbourhood past an extensive system of checkpoints.

Iraqi police and soldiers continue to use British-made fake bomb detector wands at many checkpoints across the country. The company that made them, ATSC, was dissolved in 2013, and its founder, Jim McCormick, was convicted of three counts of fraud and sentenced to 10 years in jail.

Iraqi interior ministry and military officials spent an estimated £52m on the devices. Officials still insist they work.

Is there something new about all this car bomb, terrorist attacks, jihad?  Nothing.  These problems are not new and the authorities there did not or maybe they are trying to stop this kind of awful killings.  Still it keeps on going on.  Precious lives were wasted due to the evil and twisted minds of these terrorists.

This is quite sad. When these killings will stop?

Never. Most of the Middle-Eastern nations are divided along sectarian divisions, and only secular dictatorships can keep them together. That is the reason why the middle-eastern nations remained peaceful when Saddam Hussein, Bashar al Assad, and Hosni Mubarak were ruling. Once they were deposed with the help of US and Saudi Arabia, the divisions were ignited.

this is the most brutal weapon for ISIS that they are famous for. to stop these attacks, Iraqi government must be more serious in the check points and use technology to search for bombs
i suppose that iraqi government do its level best but most of the western countries such as usa , united kingdom dont let iraq take strict safety measure because of their horrible aims on the middle east.

When somebody will let the USG bureaucrats to taste their own "democracy". After 1000-2000 of casualties in the Washington DC they will leave, letting the Middle East to live in peace. Unfortunately, that's the only option.
