1. Geez this one and Turkey so far today

I really do hope there aren't any more.

The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, or PUK, is a pro-U.S. group whose head, Jalal Talabani, is the current head of the U.S.-installed Iraqi Governing Council.

"An explosion took place at 10:30 this morning," said Jalal Johar, the party's representative in the city said. Four people were killed and several wounded, he said.

The latest bombing comes after string of attacks and assassinations of politicians and community leaders who have cooperated with the U.S.-led coalition.

Insurgents have warned they will target anyone who collaborates with the occupation authorities.

The blast in Kirkuk, 250 km (150 miles) north of Baghdad, flattened a wall around the green-painted headquarters of the PUK and shattered windows at a nearby primary school, wounding children with flying glass.

A U.S. officer at the scene confirmed three people were killed plus the suicide bomber, but said the death toll was likely to rise.
