U.S. Military Policeman Killed in Iraq

[DuctapeFatwa]

A U.S. military policeman died in ongoing attacks on coalition troops and their allies, the U.S. command said Monday, as the Army intensified operations to root out the growing insurgency.
In Sadr City, a poor, mainly Shiite quarter of eastern Baghdad, witnesses Monday said that a U.S. soldier shot and killed the head of the district's U.S.-appointed municipal council in a weekend altercation.

In the town of Iskandariyah, 40 miles, south of Baghdad, guerrillas attacked a patrol with a rocket-propelled grenade, killing a military policeman, a statement said.

1. perhaps a notable location of the incident

(reposted in the event that other thread ends up being locked as a duplicate)

al-Iskandariyah is halfway on the road to Karbala from Baghdad, a bit further down the road from the al-Mahmudiya attack a few days ago. Not exactly within that so-called "Sunni Triangle" that the occupation propagandists & media lackeys trumpet on about..
