Bad day in Najaf .

Bad day in Najaf. NAJAF — I don’t know what the news is from the rest of Iraq or even what’s going on with the governor of Najaf. I do know what’s happening with the police department, however. They’re raiding the Sea of Najaf hotel and rounding the 100 or so journalists at gunpoint and subjecting them to mass arrest. [Back to Iraq 3.0]

I find it interesting that members of the supposedly evil Mahdi Army are protecting journalists, including Americans, from Fed snipers, while the Feds are sending their sepoys to threaten journalists.
