Attack on School Children

The following is from Al-Sabah, a publicly-owned independent daily newpaper. Stories like these provide a better understanding to why nearly 3.4 million Iraqi youth are not in traditional schools.

SCHOOL ATTACK FOILED BY ALERT GUARD
(Al-Sabah) Education minister Falah Hassan al-Soodani says a member of the FPS (facility protection services) has arrested an Arab terrorist who tried to activate an explosive belt he was wearing among a crowd of schoolchildren in Baghdad. The attacker entered the school and the security guard had the courage to detain him and prevent a massacre.
