Muslims killing Muslims, so many innocent people slaughtered, all WHY?

Angry Iraqis pelt prime minister’s convoy with rocks after IS bombing kills at least 200.
Sunday’s bombing in a popular shopping district was the deadliest terror attack in Iraq in a year.
Iraqi authorities on Monday raised the death toll to more than 200 from Sunday’s devastating truck bombing at a bustling Baghdad commercial street as Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi ordered new security measures in the country’s capital.

The blast, which the Islamic State group said it carried out, hit the Karrada district early Sunday as the area was packed with shoppers ahead of this week’s holiday marking the end of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.
The attack sparked anger among Iraqis at the government’s inability to keep them safe even as its forces push IS back, and prompted Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to announce efforts to address longstanding flaws in Baghdad security measures.
