Baghdad Erupts in Mob Violence


Just when, even, we thought it couldn't get any worse:

Baghdad Erupts in Mob Violence - New York Times:

BAGHDAD, July 9: A mob of gunmen went on a brazen daytime rampage through a predominantly Sunni Arab district of western Baghdad on Sunday, pulling people from their cars and homes and killing them in what officials and residents called a spasm of revenge by Shiite militias for the bombing of a Shiite mosque on Saturday. Hours later, two car bombs exploded beside a Shiite mosque in another Baghdad neighborhood in a deadly act of what appeared to be retaliation.
