Response to the New York Times's article “Bombings in Iraq, Deadliest Since 2007, Raise Security Issue” by Timothy Williams

The two suicide car bombings occurred in Iraq were very terrified and inhuman. This terrorists’ attack caused many people died and wounded, and it also damaged the two government buildings—the Justice Ministry and Provincial council complexes. This incident was not occurred only once in Iraq. It has happened several times last year. These kinds of attack have brought many casualties to the nation, but I believe this kind of incidents can be prevented by adding more security guards and troops to the Iraqi streets and neighbors and patrolling more frequently around. Especially, Iraqi presidential election is coming, so the government must be cautioned and be aware of any terrorists’ attack. The government should not just keep promising to its citizens that government “has kept the country reasonably safe”. The Iraqi government should take actions not just making promises to its frighten citizens. It feels very weird to me when I read a line in the article, it said: “The bombers apparently passed through multiple security checkpoints before detonating their vehicles within a minute of each other …”. Passing multiple security checkpoints, that is amazing how these bombers can pass through, and how the Iraqi security performs its work to protect citizen from terrorism.
