OK, I can't resist. Associated Press is reporting that Iraq's prime minister Nouri al-Maliki has ordered a daytime driving ban in Baghdad and Baquoba provice (where Abu Musab al Zarqawi was killed) to prevent car bomb attacks.

The driving ban will be from 11am to 3pm. So we should expect car bombings after 3pm and before 11am. Maybe the Iraqis should just outlaw driving and cars altogether.

Charles (Chuck) Peña is a senior fellow with the Coalition for a Realistic Foreign Policy, MSNBC analyst, and author of "Winning the Un-War."

Actually, Car Bombers Union #74 has declared the hours between 3PM and 11AM a bomb free period, so Maliki's solution should be quite workable. However, I understand that those are the peak hours for mass beheadings, and the Lobbers Union refuses to negotiate. All we can do is pray for a last throe.
