IRAQ TEETERS ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSE
A brief tally of the last several days gives an idea of the situation in Iraq:
Sunday, April 5: nine Iraqis killed, 30 wounded
Saturday, April 4: one US marine, two Iraqis killed; eight Iraqis wounded
Friday, April 3: one US soldier, five Iraqis killed; 17 Iraqis wounded
Thursday, April 2: nine Iraqis killed, 22 wounded
Wednesday, April 1: one US soldier, 15 Iraqis killed; 25 Iraqis wounded
At the height of the sectarian violence that ravaged Iraq between early 2006 and mid-2007, some days found 300 Iraqis being killed. Right now, Iraq is teetering on the brink of returning to that level of bloodletting.
