Excerpt:
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Bombers and gunmen killed more than 40 people and injured dozens across Iraq on Monday as the government prepared to further tighten security ahead of the holy month of Ramadan, when violence traditionally spikes in the country.
Meanwhile, tribes in one of Iraq’s most volatile provinces have joined together to fight the insurgency in their region, calling on the government and the U.S.-led military coalition to give them weapons, a prominent tribal leader said.
Tribal leaders and clerics in Ramadi, the capital of violent Anbar province, met last week and have set up a force of about 20,000 men “ready to purge the city of these infidels,” Sheik Fassal al-Guood, a prominent tribal leader from Ramadi, told The Associated Press.
“People are fed up with the acts of those criminals who take Islam as a cover for their crimes,” he said. “The situation in the province is unbearable, the city is abandoned, most of the families have fled the city and all services are poor.”
H.L.s Take:
Impeachement, Impeachment, Impeachment. John Dean and Elizabeth Holtzmans words are still ringing in my head.
