How's That Wall Coming Along?

A senior U-S commander has been wounded by small arms fire while inspecting a security wall being built around a Sunni enclave in Baghdad.

Much of the construction is being done at night by troops wearing night-vision goggles. But the officer was wounded while conducting a daytime survey.

Not so good, then.

It's so bad in Baghdad that they have to build at night wearing night-vision goggles.

And things aren't going so well elsewhere in Iraq either.

A 17-year-old girl has been stoned to death in Iraq because she loved a teenage boy of the wrong religion.

Reports from Iraq said a local security force witnessed the incident, but did nothing to try to stop it. Now her boyfriend is in hiding in fear for his life.
