The executions came on the same day that two suicide car bombers targeted a police station in western Baghdad, killing 13. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, on a tour abroad to ask the mostly Sunni-led governments of the Arab world to help his struggling government stop the violence in Iraq, said he told Egypt's president that Iraq's reality is "not a civil or sectarian war." Armed men in several cars stopped the bus Sunday afternoon as it was carrying workers from the Mosul Textile Factory to their hometown of Bashika, which has a mixed population of Christians and Yazidis -- a primarily Kurdish sect that worships an angel considered to be the devil by some Muslims and Christians. The gunmen checked passengers' identification cards, then asked all Christians to get off the bus, said police Brig. Mohammed al-Wagga. With the Yazidis still inside, the gunmen drove them to eastern Mosul, where they were lined up along a wall and shot to death, al-Wagga said. Yazidis are concentrated mostly around the northern city of Mosul, 225 miles northwest of Baghdad. After the killings, hundreds of Yazidis took to the streets of Bashika. Shops were shuttered and many Muslim residents closed themselves in their homes, fearing reprisal attacks. Police set up additional checkpoints across the city. 13 killed in suicide blasts Earlier Sunday, two suicide car bombers attacked a police station Sunday in western Baghdad, killing at least 13 people and wounding 82, police said. The bombs exploded as al-Maliki arrived in Cairo, Egypt, on the first stop of a four-nation regional tour aimed at winning Arab support for his embattled government. The first driver raced through a police checkpoint guarding the station and exploded his vehicle just outside the two-story building, police said. Moments later, a second suicide car bomber aimed for the checkpoint's concrete barriers and exploded just outside them, police said. The blasts collapsed nearby buildings, smashing windows and burying at least four cars under piles of concrete. Metal roofs were peeled back by the force of the explosions. Pools of blood made red mud of a dusty driveway. An unidentified man with wounds to his hands and one eye staggered through the wreckage. "All our belongings and money were smashed and are gone. What kind of life is this? Where is the government?" he exclaimed. "There are no jobs, and things are very bad. Is this fair?" Iraqi police stations often are the target of attacks by insurgents who accuse the officers of betraying Iraq by working in cooperation with its U.S.-backed Shiite government and the American military. 46 police officers injured The blasts occurred at about 10 a.m. in Baiyaa, a mixed Sunni-Shiite area of western Baghdad, a policeman said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media. He said 13 people died -- five policemen and eight civilians -- and that 82 were wounded: 46 police officers and 36 civilians. The casualty toll could rise as rescue workers sifted through rubble for more victims. Thick black smoke billowed up into the sky and ambulances raced to the location with sirens wailing. A top U.S. general said Sunday that American forces had no technology capable of detecting all suicide bombers before they strike. Lt. Gen. Martin Dempsey, who is in charge of training Iraqi troops, said the only solution is for Iraqi forces, government officials and civilians to work together to stop the terrorist cells that plan such attacks. "The unfortunate reality of suicide bombers is that there is no ... magic formula for solving that problem. There is no technological solution that will guarantee that we can prevent ... either a suicide bomber or a suicide car bomber from entering into the populated areas," Dempsey told reporters in Baghdad's Green Zone. Al-Maliki's trip came at a precarious time for his regime. He suffered a blow last week when six Cabinet ministers allied to radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr quit the government to protest the prime minister's failure to back calls for a timetable for the withdrawal of U.S. forces. Al-Maliki is expected to name replacements in the coming days. On Sunday, al-Maliki was received by his Egyptian counterpart, Ahmed Nazif, and was scheduled to meet later in the day with President Hosni Mubarak and the head of the Arab League, Amr Moussa. The meetings come just 10 days before two conferences on Iraq are to be held in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheik. They will be attended by Iraq's neighbors as well as Bahrain and Egypt, and the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, as well as other developed countries. After Egypt, al-Maliki is scheduled to visit Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Oman. Mechanic sees colleague in 'pool of blood' The bombings in Baiyaa also damaged homes and car service centers near the police station. At least two mechanics working nearby were wounded by flying shrapnel and debris. "I was thrown outside my shop by the huge blast, and I saw my colleague in the shop next to me lying on the ground motionless, with pool of blood beneath him," said Anmar Abdul Hadi, 20. Another victim spoke by phone from a gurney at Yarmouk Hospital, where the wounded were taken. "I was cleaning a car at the garage where I work when suddenly an explosion took place and knocked me over," said Hussein Rahim, 22, who was wounded in the arm. Another car repairman, 25-year-old Mohammed Abdul-Hussein, said: "I heard two explosions and was thrown near the car I was working on. Smoke filled the area and I couldn't see my fellow workers at first." He suffered a shoulder wound. In addition to Baiyaa police officers, the station had been serving as the temporary headquarters for police from Dora, a neighborhood in southern Baghdad. Last month, a suicide truck bomber demolished the Dora station, killing at least 11 people. The Baiyaa bombings also came a day after the killing of the Fallujah City Council chairman, a critic of al Qaeda who took the job after his three predecessors were assassinated. Sami Abdul-Amir al-Jumaili was gunned down by attackers in a passing car as he walked outside his home in central Fallujah, 65 kilometers (40 miles) west of Baghdad, police said. The 65-year-old Sunni sheik was the fourth Fallujah council chairman to be killed in some 14 months, as insurgents target fellow Sunnis willing to cooperate with the U.S. and its Iraqi partners. Abdul-Amir's predecessor, Abbas Ali Hussein, who was shot to death February 2. The U.S. military also reported the deaths of three soldiers on Saturday. One was killed and two others wounded in a rocket or mortar attack on their base southwest of Baghdad. Another was killed and three were wounded when a combat security patrol was attacked with small-arms fire and rocket-propelled grenades in western Baghdad. The third died due to a non-combat cause, according to a brief statement that provided no other details but said the incident was under investigation. On Sunday, a former member of Saddam Hussein's Baath Party was gunned down near his house in Fallujah, police said. In other violence, morgue officials said three bodies were found floating in the Tigris river in Suwayrah, 40 kilometers (25 miles) south of Baghdad. The bodies were blindfolded with the hands bound, and had gunshots in the head and chest, said morgue official Maamoun al-Ajili. In Basra, Iraq's second largest-city, 550 kilometers (340 miles) southeast of Baghdad, the British military said a suspect accused of attacks on British and Iraqi troops in the area was killed in a raid. Two of the man's brothers were arrested, a spokeswoman said. Details emerged Sunday about a mortar attack Saturday inside Baghdad's U.S.-guarded Green Zone. A spokesman for Ahmed Chalabi, who runs the Supreme National Commission for de-Baathification, said a mortar round landed on Chalabi's office, which was empty at the time. No one was harmed.
