Iraqis mourn victims of Baghdad mosque attack (AP)

BAGHDAD ? Weeping relatives and friends are holding funeral processions for worshippers killed in a suicide bombing inside the Iraqi capital's largest Sunni mosque.

One of the funerals was for a father and his 5-year-old son.

Sunday night's bombing inside the Um al-Qura mosque killed 29 people, including a Sunni lawmaker. Thirty-eight others were injured.

Wrapped with blankets, victims' caskets were carried on minibuses through Baghdad's streets Monday while women wailed and beat their chests in grief.

The deadly attack came as Iraqi political leaders are weighing whether to ask some U.S. troops to stay beyond their Dec. 31 withdrawal deadline.
