surge update - Suicide bomber targets Iraqi police, 30 killed

[spanone]

BAGHDAD - A suicide bomber struck police lined up at the entrance of the main police academy in Baghdad on Sunday, killing 30 people, officials said, even as the U.S. military said 12,000 American and 4,000 British troops will leave Iraq by September.

The blast — the second major attack to hit Iraqis in three days — was a bloody reminder of the ability of insurgents to defy security improvements and stage dramatic attacks as the U.S. begins to draw down its forces.

1. We need to increase the legal penalty for suicide-bombing so there's more of a deterrent.

Maybe post signs that say, "No Suicide-Bombing: Violators Will Be Prosecuted."
