Tens of thousands of devotees to Shi’ite (partisans of Ali) Moslem cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, along with a token number of rival Sunni (legacy of Mohammed) for sake of solidarity, march through the holy city of Najaf, burning United states flags, chanting “Death to America!,” demanding an immediate end to the occupation of their nation by the U.s. Armed Forces (private mercenaries). The day before, seven Iraqi citizens lost their lives due to terrorist violence.
NOTE: Meanwhile only five members of the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) lost their lives.
