Gunmen in Baghdad ambush bus, kill seven

BAGHDAD, July 10 (Reuters) - Gunmen ambushed a commuter bus in one of the most lawless neighbourhoods of Baghdad on Monday, killing seven people as a wave of sectarian violence swept the capital.

Police said four bodies had been found on the bus in the main street of Amriya, a Sunni stronghold. Three others, including a woman, were found 10 metres from the vehicle.

3. My husband was telling me about some Iraqi, perhaps a
reporter or blogger, who carries his Sunni ID and a Shi'a fake ID. It's kept him from getting killed before.

4. More brave fighters of the Iraqi Resistance in action
Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité!

That'll teach those nasty Americans to go away.
