Baghdad police find 14 bodies shot in head

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Baghdad police found the bodies on Tuesday of 14 men who had been shot, execution-style, in the head, a police source said.

Some were also blindfolded. The identities of the men found in the Hay al-Adil district in the mainly Sunni west of the Iraqi capital were unclear.

U.S. and Iraqi officials say dozens of people are being killed daily in sectarian violence that has increased since the bombing of a major Shi'ite shrine a month ago in Samarra.

Another one of those Negroponte's trained death squads?

Iraq is bedlam, there is no getting away from that despite how the war cheerleaders try and spin it.

People Power

March has definitely been the season for direction action what with the recent anti war demos around the world to mark the third anniversary of the Iraq War, the ongoing protests in France, the recent demostrations in the US against the immigration bill and the strikes by council workers over pensions here in the UK.

It give me hope that all is not lost yet.
