Assassinations replacing car bombs in Iraq

BAGHDAD — U.S. and Iraqi officials are seeing a shift in violence in Iraq from mass car bombings to assassinations using magnetic bombs, weapons with silencers and bicycle bombs.

Certainly assassination by a muzzled weapon is more peaceful than a car bomb. Tidier, too.

And stable? Heck, we could keep this up for a hundred years…or until we run out of Iraqis.
