Massive protests in Baghdad (again)


Supporters of Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr chant anti-U.S slogans during a protest rally in Kadhimiya district in Baghdad April 30, 2007.

Hundreds of Moqtada's supporters held a protest denouncing the U.S.-Iraqi operation in Kadhimiya district.

The U.S. military said in a statement eight gunmen were killed in a U.S.-Iraqi operation in the area but denied its forces entered Sadr's office.

I believe the protests were from some people getting killed by US forces, not the raid itself.
