Freedom Fireworks

You can't make this shit up:

BAGHDAD - Outgoing British Prime Minister Tony Blair, whose premiership has been dominated by his unpopular decision to join the Iraq war, arrived here on a farewell visit Saturday...

...Blair, who was on his seventh and final visit to Iraq as Britain's prime minister, said he believed security was improving in Iraq...


WAIT...FOR...IT

...three mortar shells or rockets slammed into the compound where he met with Iraq's leaders.

The attack on Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone wounded one person, said U.S. Embassy spokesman Lou Fintor. One round hit the British Embassy compound, security officials said on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information.
