Anti-US protests Continue Across Iraq

From Associated Press:
On Sunday, protesters shouted anti-American slogans in Duluiyah, 45 miles north of the capital. A day later, a similar demonstration was held in Baqouba, 35 miles northeast of Baghdad.

On Tuesday, in the troubled city of Samarra, tribal, city and religious leaders gathered along with students in the shadow of a spiral minaret, throwing rocks at U.S. tanks and shouting for the Americans to leave.

'The Iraqis will fight until they force (the Americans) to leave and let us live in peace and security,' Hassan Neama, 33, said Tuesday in Baghdad. 'They are the source of all of Iraq's problems. We consider the Americans our enemy, not our savior from the Saddam Hussein regime.'
