Many of you might have read what the AP had to say. Now read what the Iraqi people have to say! It has a number of changes that the AP has, naturally, messed up. Those editors are great fact checkers! HA!
IRAQ THE MODEL: "Fighting in a western Baghdad district between two insurgent groups continued for the 2nd day, eye witnesses told ITM.
The clashes erupted yesterday around noon between two groups of insurgents that are competing for control in the Amiriya district, one of Baghdad's most violent and lawless districts.
The two groups, teams actually, were later identified; on one side there's al-Qaeda and the Islamic state in Iraq and on the other there's the Islamic army and 'Jaish al-Mujahideen' (The brigades of the 1920 revolution in another account), the latter are know to be largely military and intelligence officers of the former regime as well as members of the Baath Party.
'I saw seven or eight bodies of militants who were killed in the clashes lying on the ground' one eyewitness said this morning. This was before the fighting resumed after a short pause."
