Not even the dead can escape Islam.

Muzzie's having a banner week! What's that about being a religion of peace? I've said it before and I will say it again, Islam is nothing more than a cult of death.

MOSUL, Iraq (CNN) -- A suicide bombing at a Shiite Muslim funeral procession killed at least 47 people Thursday in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, hospital officials said.

The explosion also wounded 27 others, the officials said, near the Shahedayein Mosque in central Mosul's al-Ta'meen district.

A U.S. military statement said preliminary reports indicated 25 to 30 people were killed and more than 100 wounded.

"As we were inside the mosque, we saw a ball of fire and heard a huge explosion," Tahir Abdullah Sultan, 45, told The Associated Press. "After that blood and pieces of flesh were scattered around the place."

Another witness, Adnan al-Bayati, told AP, "After the cloud of smoke and dust dispersed, we saw the scattered bodies of the fallen and smelled gunpowder."
