Fighting Back

This isn't the first time this has happened (although it's rarely reported). The Iraqi populace is fighting back.

Iraqi Citizens Kill 5 Terrorists
From Radio Sawa (Arabic link): Citizens of Al Mudhiryiah (a small town in the "death triangle") were subjected to an attack by several militants today who were trying to punish the residents of this small town for voting in the election last Sunday.

The citizens responded and managed to stop the attack, kill 5 of the attackers, wounded 8 and burned their cars.3 citizens were injured during the fire exchange. The Shiekh of the tribe to whom the 3 wounded citizens belong demanded more efforts from the government to stop who he described as "Salafis".
