Insurgent Bombs Kill 100

One of the worst attacks in the ongoing insurgency occurred on June 24 2004, just a few days before the turnover of sovereignty to the Iraqis. From a briefing:

GEN. RODRIGUEZ: On the first one, the estimates -- of course the numbers are just rolling in. They're trying to figure that piece out. But the numbers that have been reported have been about a hundred killed and upwards of 300 wounded during those operations up in Mosul, which were mainly vehicle-borne IEDs that all occurred around 09:00 this morning, three of them at the same time. And they were by police stations and that, and that's where many of the innocent civilians were killed.

The formal analysis period was set as four hours, beginning 30 mins before the attacks, from 08:30 to 12:30 local (04:30-08:30 UTC). Chisquare is 14560.2 on 14400 df, with p = 0.172, and Z = 0.945.
