Severed heads found in Iraq
2006-06-06
NINE severed heads were found today in the latest atrocity in a volatile area north of Baghdad, police said, as Iraqi leaders faced a crisis over filling key security jobs critical to ending rampant bloodshed.

Police in the city of Baquba, 65km north of the capital, said the heads were discovered in plastic bags in its northern al-Hadid district. No other details were immediately available.
It was the second such gruesome discovery in or near Baquba in the last few days. On Saturday, police said they found the cut-off heads of seven cousins and an Sunni Arab Imam by the side of the road outside Baquba.

#3  Just the heads? Intresting. Note to a traveler to Iraq---do not buy meat products from street vendors.

#2  Right on Frank G. They kill people, civilians (take them off buses and seperate them), leave thier heads to be found, and we need to leave the war cause of something a few (operative word-few)marines may or may not have done. I suppose we should wait to see how the investigation by the insurgents comes out on these heads before judgement as well. How about we issue our finding the same time they issue thiers.
