Not tired yet of posting out of context claims about Muslims? If you're going to quote these incidents, please do provide the sources, and please do provide some evidence that they acted on the basis of their religious affiliation, otherwise, please don't post it.
There you go, context:
2012.07.03 (Diwaniya, Iraq) - Sunnis set off a powerful bomb near a Shiite mosque, taking down at least forty Religion of Peace rivals.
"Initial investigations show that today's bombs bear the fingerprints of al Qaeda terrorist group," Salim Hussain, governor of Diwaniya, told Iraqiya state television.
Iraq's al Qaeda wing has claimed responsibility for some of the recent bombings against Shi'ites.
Last month at least 237 people were killed and 603 wounded in attacks, mainly bombings, according to a Reuters tally, making June one of the bloodiest months in Iraq since U.S. troops withdrew at the end of last year.
The deadliest attack occurred on June 13 when bombers targeting Shi'ite pilgrims killed more than 70 people.
Sunni insurgents often attack Shi'ite targets to try to reignite sectarian violence that killed tens of thousands of people in 2006-2007.

2012.07.03 (Karbalah, Iraq) - Eight Shiite worshippers are sent straght to Allah by Sunni bombers at a vegetable market.
A series of bomb blasts killed at least 37 people across Iraq on Tuesday, including 30 in an explosion at a vegetable market in Diwaniya, police officials said.
In that attack, some 99 miles (160 kilometers) south of Baghdad, a suicide bomber parked a truck packed with explosives concealed by watermelons and began calling shoppers to the truck. He then detonated the bomb, killing 30 and wounding 100, according to police.
The bombing in the largely Shiite city was among a series of attacks across Iraq, including a car-bomb attack in an outdoor market in Karbala, killing four people and wounding 30 others, according to Haider Jaber Jasim in the Karbala governor's office

His pick-up truck was demolished by a homemade bomb estimated to contain 10 kg of explosives in a gas cylinder buried under the road surface.

2012.07.02 (Kandahar, Afghanistan) - A Shahid suicide bomber detonates near the entrance of a university, killing seven students and staff.
Kandahar was the birthplace of the extremist Taliban regime which ruled Afghanistan from 1996 until it was deposed by a US-led invasion in 2001.
It remains one of the hotbeds of the decade-long insurgency against the Western-backed government of President Hamid Karzai.
NATO and Afghan forces are the main targets for the militants, whose tactics frequently include suicide attacks, but local civilians working for the coalition are also targeted.
Two weeks ago Taliban attackers stormed two Afghan-NATO bases in Kandahar province, killing four police officers.
