#1 "Unidentified gunmen."

Uh, huh, right. These are local Shia militia, many of whom are actually Jabr's "police", trying to prevent the training of real cops. Big surprise.

I'm sorta of the opinion that all of the police in the Shia areas should be divided into two groups - those that were and those were not trained by competent non-Iraqis.

Then get medieval on those who were not - they are militia agents, death squaddies, and Qom bitches.
