Aljazeera.Net - Casualties in powerful Baghdad blast

Iraqi police fired in the air to drive back crowds which struck the cars with sticks. The crowd shouted "Allahu Akbar," and "Down with the USA."

US occupation soldiers arrived and tried to seal off the area. The blast is the latest in a series of similar explosions that have rocked Baghdad since the US occupation of Iraq last March.

This is the daily life of some people. This is what they do for a living. This is what people who live on this street deal with. The police have this to worry about instead of paperwork. Problems. Real problems.
