rabble columns - Fury ignites solidarity in Iraq
"April 9, 2003, was the day Baghdad fell to U.S. forces. One year later, it is rising up against them ? an Iraqi intifada. ?They stole our playground,? an 8-year-old boy in Sadr City told me, pointing at six tanks parked in a soccer field next to a rusty jungle gym. The field is a precious bit of green in an area of Baghdad that is otherwise a swamp of raw sewage and uncollected garbage."
