Mass protest over Basra insecurity
http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/F4B9AA07-FA1E-4F65-BB25-8813B65325D2.htm
Residents are becoming increasingly alarmed about security, saying
that killings, kidnappings and other crimes have increased
significantly since British forces turned over responsibility for the
city at the end of last year.

Dozens of women were slain in Basra last year because of how they
dressed - their mutilated bodies found with notes warning against
"violating Islamic teachings".
