Because you don't have a list comprehension. You can't put add arbitrary

list comprehension:
listcomp = [expression for name in sequence]
not
listcomp = [expression for name in sequence another_command]
And being picky you can add a conditional after the loop:
> listcomp = [expression for name in sequence if some_condition]
But it must be an if test, nothing else will do.
